A new study shows that red light therapy can contribute to fat breakdown by inducing apoptosis in fat cells. In plain language, this means fewer fat cells. In a controlled study on women with grade II obesity, where one side of the abdomen was treated, increased activity of markers for cell breakdown and fat mobilization was observed. The results suggest that PBMT can promote fat burning and improve body composition.
