0:25.6	Hey, everyone, welcome back.
0:26.4	Let's discuss red light therapy.
0:28.0	Clearly a promising wellness tool.
0:30.5	In fact, the most recent, I think compelling data point here reviewed 204 randomized control
0:37.2	trials and found consistent benefit across hair growth, pain
0:42.3	reduction, cognitive function, oral health, and wound healing. Now, one of the challenges is in the
0:50.1	marketplace with the interest, there's now many devices, there's competing marketing
0:56.1	claims. Some devices I feel are vastly overpriced. So I wanted to take today as an opportunity
1:03.1	to share what I've personally researched and used the specific devices, what my results
1:10.4	were, and what I learned. So let's jump in. And if you're
1:15.4	new here, welcome, I'm Michael Rucho. I'm a doctor in private practice. I also work as a clinical
1:20.2	researcher and as an adjunct professor. Okay, so let's start with the panel application on red light. There are all different devices. There's hair devices. There's devices for your gums. And I have a number of them here and we'll kind of walk through them. But if we're going to be using one device that will maximize your return on investment, meaning treatment time in leads to the maximum therapeutic
1:45.8	benefit out. That's where we want to target a device like a panel or a total body treatment
1:51.5	that's going to hit the largest area. So the device that I've used is the Platinum LED Biomax
1:59.9	panel. There's a few reasons for this. It has a wide range of
2:05.9	wavelengths. The shorter the wavelength, the more superficial the penetration. The longer the wavelength,
2:13.8	the deeper the penetration. So if we have a device that has a range from short to long
2:19.6	wavelengths, we get a variety of tissue depths that will hit. So this will really give us not only
2:25.3	with a panel the broadest area that's covered, but also the greatest level of variance in the depth
