Mito Red Light Advanced Red Light Therapy Belt User Manual
Overview
Red and near-infrared light are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and more specifically, part of the spectrum of light emitted by the sun. These wavelengths of light are “bioactive” in humans.
The specific photons found in red and near infrared light interact with a photoreceptor within our cells called cytochrome c oxidase. This interacts on mutates the mitochondria in our cells to use oxygen more efficiently, which allows the mitochondria to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Adenosine triphosphate is a complex organic chemical that provides energy to drive many processes in living cells, e.g. muscle contract on, nerve impulse propagate on, and chemical synthesis. Found in all forms of life, ATP is even referred to as the “molecular unit of currency” of intracellular energy transfer. When our cells have more energy, they simply perform better and the body follows suit!

Indications for Use
Mito Red Lights are general wellness devices and are not intended to cure or
diagnose any medical conditions. Use of this device is designed to help
promote overall health and wellness by supporting cellular function. Mito Red
Lights should only be operated based on the user guidelines, as outlined in
this user manual.
First Time Users
For first time users, we recommend starting out with 2-3 minute treatments per
area, and slowly working up to a 10-minute session over the course of 2-3
weeks as your body acclimates to the therapy.
Standard Use
We recommend 10-minute treatments. per area. Additional 10- minute sessions
for specific areas may be beneficial but beyond a certain point, the
scientific evidence points to diminishing returns. More is not always better.
For this reason, we recommend you allow at least 6 hours between treatments of
the same area. We recommend no more than 20 minutes in any one session. We
recommend using the device 4-10 times per week. We recommend taking at least
one day off per week.
