As I eluded to above, the first article I will report on comes from one of our good friends and former podcast guests, Praveen Arany, on how brain fog secondary to COVID-19 can be treated with red light therapy either transcranially or via full-body treatments. That's awesome to know, as that gives us options and some flexibility en route to positive benefits for this health malady; as far as I'm concerned, it's nice to have options!

The second article is for the women out there and/or those that work in the women's health field: transvaginal red light therapy in order to help reduce pain related to interstitial cystitis/ bladder pain syndrome. For many of you, this may be the first time you have heard about red light therapy inside the vagina. However, this type of a treatment has been an option for women for quite some time with many potential health benefits. This is just the first time I have reported on it on the podcast.

The last article is about red light therapy and its potential with treating skin cancer. There is a decent amount of overlap with the article we covered last week on RLT and cancer, but it's always great to hear the information from a slightly different vantage point and different researchers. ​​​​

It's nice to cover several topics in a single episode to help convey red light therapy's many potentials and versatility. At the very least, it goes to show that darn near anyone and everyone can benefit from a little red light therapy in their lives​. As always, light up your health and enjoy!
