Huberman Lab · Using Red Light to Improve Metabolism & the Harmful Effects of LEDs | Dr. Glen Jeffery · 1 Dec 2025 podcast

There is an increase in the spin rate of the motor that produces ATP and it gains momentum.

That is absolutely fine.

I can stick with that one.

I think that one makes a considerable degree of sense and it gets us over a problem.

Mitochondria themselves are not absorbing long wavelength light.

It's the water that they're surrounded by.

It's their environment.

Okay.

So I think in the end, when you talk about the function of anything, we tend to focus on that thing and we don't talk too much about where is it?

What's it surrounded by and how does it influence it?

So the first reaction I think is that

the motor starts to go around a little faster, but then something else happens, which is really interesting, which is we start to make more of these chains that make energy.

So let's say mitochondria is a chain, it's a series of things and electrons are passed along that chain to produce energy.

Well, when we give long wavelength light, we find the proteins in those change.

We find a lot more of them.

So my analogy is that giving red light gets the train to run down the track faster.

That's true.

But then something detects the speed of that train and says, lay down more tracks.

We need more tracks.

So we're finding a lot more protein there that is associated with passing that electron down the pathway to make energy.
