Green Light Therapy

So I stumbled across green light therapy and am wondering if anyone has tried it for pain relief.

They put rats inside container which had green light around the edges and compared the pain tolerance before and after the treatment.  The green light therapy increased the rats pain tolerance greatly. 

All lights stimulate neurons to fire. However green light produces the smallest reaction from neurons compared to other colors.

It sounds interesting, but would it not be better to try to find the root cause of the pain?

If there is a way to treat the pain then yes they should do that. Otherwise they may want try Green light therapy. I don't have pain except when I stub my toe or try to do something productive. The latter is so painful.

Looks like it’s meant for pain that can’t really be treated.  Not sure it would hurt anyone but right now it’s being tested for HIV patients ( according to your article). Would be great if it reduced the amount of pain meds.  

Not sure why you have pain .... I hope it has been diagnosed because treated Celiac should not cause pain everyday

I don't have pain, I was just reading interesting things on the internet.

      The ulcers are prepyloric ulcers. Not sure if that makes any difference.

      Duodenal ulcers are not uncommon either and often result from H.Pylori infections. https://www.healthdirect.gov.au/duodenal-ulcer

      I had what was termed "lesions," and normally ulcers are in the stomach, rather than the small intestines. I'm not sure why they would want you to have her continue to eat gluten, since she had a positive blood test, but as her doctor said, if she is uncomfortable and having symptoms why not have her go gluten-free at this point? If her symptoms improve, it would be another indicator that she has celiac disease and/or gluten sensitivity. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
