Key takeaways
  1. 01The body emits an "ultraweak" light called biophotons
  2. 02Emission patterns reflect the body's left-right symmetry
  3. 03Disease may be linked to broken symmetry in light emission
  4. 04Biophoton emission follows certain biological rhythms

The faint light emitted by the body may reflect its overall health, symmetry, and biological rhythms, suggesting a potential new diagnostic tool.

Abstract

For the first time systematic measurements of the "ultraweak" photon emission of the human body (biophotons) have been performed by means of a photon detector device set up in darkness. About 200 persons have been investigated. In a particular case one person has been examined daily over several months. It turned out that this biophoton emission reflects, (i) the left-right symmetry of the human body; (ii) biological rhythms such as 14 days, 1 month, 3 months and 9 months; (iii) disease in terms of broken symmetry between left and right side; and (iv) light channels in the body, which regulate energy and information transfer between different parts. The results show that besides a deeper understanding of health, disease and body field, this method provides a new powerful tool of non-invasive medical diagnosis in terms of basic regulatory functions of the body.
