Now if you are like me, technical information is only of interest when you are keen to learn. So if you are interested in some technical information on Blue Light you might like to read on. This is purposefully simple…
Blue Light – well you know visible light is split up into the colors of a rainbow. At one end is red and the other is blue/violet. This is the light we can see with our eyes. When you get to the blue end of the spectrum it is called High Energy Visible (HEV) blue light. Why high energy? Well light is a wave and the shorter the wave length the higher the energy so blue light is around 400-500nanometers and as the wave lengths are shorter than say red light which is around 700-800 nanometers we have more energy in blue light than in red light.
Light is a beautiful construct of our reality and all light has energy. So the energy in blue light that we can see is the highest of all our visible light. Beyond this we have Ultra Violet Blue light which has even shorter wavelengths and is invisible to the human eye. The invisible electromagnetic rays just beyond the visible light spectrum are sometimes referred to as UV radiation, which is a short way of saying radiated energy. Ultra Violet Blue Light has many wonderful healing properties and is also known to assist in the production of Vitamin D which is an all round support for brain and body.
In the Diamond Pulse Pro & Star Pulse Pro we use High Energy Visible (HEV) light Blue LED’s. These blue lights are emitting energy and some of the research into light and light therapy indicates HEV light boosts alertness, helps memory and cognitive function and elevates mood. I am no expert nor are these medical claims so please do your own research into the properties of blue light.
