We’ve talked here before about the effect that chromotherapy (or color therapy) can have on a person’s emotional state. There have been some positive findings regarding the regular and targeted use of colored light to balance emotional and physical energy.

Now, it looks like color therapy might be useful in the fight against diabetes as well. According to a study out of Zurich, Switzerland, burst of blue light may be helpful to trigger a genetic response to make more insulin.

People with type 2 diabetes do not respond properly to insulin, which controls blood sugar levels. Many diabetics are insulin injection-dependent.

We’re hearing a lot in the media lately about electromagnetic fields (EMF), usually in relation to mobile phones. And, from time to time, we get a question about whether Sunlighten infrared saunas (or infrared saunas in general) produce high EMF levels.
