Summary

In this episode, I’m speaking with one of the global authorities on light therapy, Dr. Praveen Arany. Dr. Arany began researching photobiomodulation (PBM), aka light therapy, 25 years ago, and since then, he has become a world-renowned expert in the field.

We get into the nitty-gritty science of light therapy—we discuss specific biological mechanisms of how photobiomodulation works, his research on light therapy and stem cells, and even misconceptions about light therapy that are important for you to consider if it’s part of your healing arsenal.

A little warning: I want to let you know that this is not a good “beginner’s guide” to this topic. I’d say it’s more for health geeks (like me) who are really into learning the fine details of how light interacts with human biology. This podcast is very detailed and very geeked out, so don’t say I didn’t warn you! :)

0:00.0	Hey, this is Ari. Welcome to the Energy Blueprint Podcast. With me in today's episode is Dr. Praveen
0:13.4	Arani, who is one of the top experts in the world on the subject of red and near-infrared
0:20.3	light therapy and photo
0:21.5	biomodulation.
0:23.1	This is something, by the way, that hopefully you know.
0:26.4	I wrote a book on in 2018, the ultimate guide to red light therapy.
0:33.2	And that book has since become the most popular book in the world on this subject.
0:37.8	I'm very proud to say and feel fortunate and honored to say that.
0:42.3	Book is also in need of an update.
0:45.3	Hint, hint, might be one coming soon.
0:48.3	But in this episode, it is all about Dr. Arani.
0:52.3	And I wanted to interview him because he's one of the foremost
0:57.2	experts in the world on the mechanisms, understanding the detailed mechanisms of how photo
1:03.6	biomodulation, light biology modulation, photo biomodulation, works in the human body.
1:11.6	And there's a lot of, you know, a lot of different ideas around this.
1:16.6	A lot of people have their own sort of theories about how it works.
1:20.6	And Dr. Arani is one of the top experts in the world.
1:23.6	So I wanted to get, you know, sort of be able to dialogue with him and
1:27.8	talk through his understanding of the mechanisms, which was incredibly insightful. A little about
1:34.9	him. His CV is way too long to go through in depth and list off everything that's there.
1:41.7	He's a dentist by training. He's done extensive PhD and postdoctoral
1:46.3	training in dental medicine and oral pathology and bioengineering at Harvard University. He's a professor
