Ari Whitten on the healing benefits of red light therapy


Ari Whitten is the founder of The Energy Blueprint and a leading educator in the science of human energy and fatigue. He is the best-selling author of The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy and Eat for Energy. His work focuses on understanding how energy is created at the cellular level and how modern lifestyle factors disrupt or restore that process. Ari is known for translating complex research into practical strategies grounded in physiology, not popular health trends.

Ari has a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology, a master’s in human nutrition and functional medicine, and advanced graduate-level training in clinical psychology. For more than 25 years, he has studied mitochondrial health, sleep and circadian biology, nutrition, gut health, light therapy, fitness, and adaptive stress.

In our interview, we go deep into red light. We cover how different types of red light interact with your cells, support repair and regeneration, and influence energy, skin health, mood, and recovery. We also discuss cancer-related research, including photodynamic therapy and other emerging noninvasive technologies. And we discuss why this safe and powerful healing therapy is not used in mainstream medicine.

I’m thankful for Ari’s dedication to research and for his ability to bring a clear, science-based understanding to red light therapy. Enjoy!

I've interviewed over 80 people who've healed all types and stages of cancer. Check them out here. Or use the search bar to find survivors of specific cancer types.

I also created a coaching program for cancer patients and anyone who is serious about prevention called SQUARE ONE. It contains the step-by-step strategies used by myself and many others who have healed cancer with a holistic approach using nutrition and natural non-toxic therapies.

    I have three devices that I use for strains and sprains and my arthritis. It helps heal, for arthritis is just makes it more tolerable without pills. I am yet to try it on my head for hair and face but am planning on trying. I just use it while I am watching tv at night maybe 4 times a week. Works for me.

    I learned of Histotripsy a couple of years ago and it is only approved for certain LIVER tumors. Very disappointed that Ari would use this “bait” to engage your audience.

  3. Mandy Fulford

    Can you please tell me what brand of red light bag or mat you use? I’m so confused by all the options and can’t tell what’s legit/good.

  4. Kasia

    It’s a pity there’s no video on YouTube, I can’t translate it in Rumble

    Always wonder if could use for SKIN CANCER? Freaked out about putting light directly on skin cancer since that’s the whole reason you get skin cancer in the first place. Anyone know?

      Actually look into sunscreens and cancer, they are more likely to cause the skin cancer that we are seeing than the ultraviolet rays of the sun. Don’t take my word for it, there’s a fascinating rabbit hole associated with the sunscreen industry and sunglasses if you are willing to go down it. Blocking the UV rays with chemically altered creams is a way more likely scenario than the sun. Also, there are other ways if you’re truly afraid of the sun and its rays, but it’s just food for thought.

    Does red light worsen hyperpigmentation/sun spots?

  7. Deborah

    Can you please share a reputable face mask that doesn’t have EMF’s. Which one do you use Chris?
