Understanding the Biological Impacts of Light on the Body
Different wavelengths of light can impact tissues and organs in the body at different depths, which can lead to changes in how cells and organs function. Certain pigments or colors can absorb specific wavelengths of light, and longer wavelength light like red and near-infrared light has the ability to penetrate through tissues and skin.
