Blue Light Lowers Blood Pressure

This study investigated whether blue light can decrease blood pressure and increase vascular function in healthy subjects.   They found that blue light exposure “improves blood pressure, endothelial function and arterial stiffness.”  The mechanism for this benefit was nitric oxide that the body released into circulating blood with blue light exposure.  More reasons to shine with light.
