Cognitive Enhancement Light

Meaning

Cognitive enhancement light refers to the targeted application of specific wavelengths of light, often in the near-infrared spectrum, intended to non-invasively improve executive functions such as attention, memory, and processing speed. This intervention operates on the premise that optimal cognitive performance is inextricably linked to cerebral energy metabolism and neuronal health. For individuals focused on hormonal health and longevity, maintaining sharp cognition is a key outcome, as hormonal shifts, particularly in sex steroids and thyroid hormones, can significantly impact neurological function over the lifespan. This light therapy is a biophysical tool for optimizing brain performance.
