Mitochondria contain a variety of different cytochromes either as part of functional proteins or as electron transport shuttles (cytochrome c).
Nevertheless, many studies have shown that mitochondria are indeed an important cellular target of PBM.
- Increased production of ATP,
- Increased oxygen consumption,
- Raised mitochondrial membrane potential,
- Increased mitochondrial biogenesis
One of the most important functions of cytochromes is inside mitochondria, where they play a critical role in the respiratory chain, also known as the electron transport chain. Mitochondria are also known as the “power plants” of the cell, where they mediate the reaction between glucose as the fuel and oxygen from the air we breathe, to produce the energy required for all the processes of life. This energy is in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the final product of the respiratory chain along with carbon dioxide and water.
ATP - THE ENGINE OF LIFE ON EARTH
As far as known, all organisms from the simplest bacteria to humans use ATP as their primary energy currency. The energy level ATP carries in its high energy phosphate bonds, is just the right amount for most biological reactions. Nutrients contain energy in low-energy covalent bonds which are not very useful to do most kinds of work in the cells.
Energy is usually liberated from the ATP molecule to do work in the cell by a reaction that removes one of the phosphate-oxygen groups, leaving adenosine diphosphate (ADP). When the ATP converts to ADP, the ATP is said to be spent. Then the ADP is usually immediately recycled in the inner membranes of the mitochondria where it is recharged and comes out again as ATP. Charging ADP to form ATP in the mitochondria is called chemiosmotic phosphorylation (the details you can research online).
In the words of James Trefil, “hooking and unhooking that last phosphate [on ATP] is what keeps the whole world operating.”
The enormous amount of activity (7000 reactions a second in EACH CELL) that occurs inside each of the approximately 70 trillion human cells is shown by the fact that at any instant each cell contains about one billion ATP molecules.
This amount is sufficient for that cell’s needs for only a few minutes and must be rapidly recycled. Given a hundred trillion cells in the average male, about 1023 or one sextillion ATP molecules normally exist in the body.
The total human body content of ATP is only about 50 grams, which must be constantly recycled every day. The ultimate source of energy for constructing ATP is food; ATP is simply the carrier and regulation- storage unit of energy. The average daily intake of 2,500 food calories translates into a turnover of a whopping 180 kg (400 lbs) of ATP!

1) ATP->ADP
ATP needs to be broken down in ADP to release the stored energy of 7.7 Calories. This process is called ATP hydrolysis and the enzyme that performs the task is ATP-ase. PEMF has been proven by research to enhance ATP-ase activity.
To summarize, researcher M. Blank: Important to our consideration of energy medicine is the fact that ATP synthesis by mitochondria is increased by exposure to weak pulsating magnetic fields that are delivered within certain biological windows. Pulsating magnetic fields do this by increasing ATPase activity. One more study referenced below comes to the same conclusion.

ADP-> ATP
PEMF stimulation has been shown to improve mitochondrial function and ATP synthesis in a variety of studies. Oxidative phosphorylation is the process in which ATP is formed as a result of the transfer of electrons from NADH or FADH2 to O2 by a series of electron carriers. This process, which takes place in mitochondria, is the major source of ATP in aerobic organisms. Because PEMFs increase microcirculation, it assists in delivering the glucose, coenzymes, minerals, and oxygen needed in the complex process of ATP production. But you can think of it simply as RECHARGING the ATP battery.
Researcher H. Dertinger states that ATP synthesis is also increased by PEMF signaling of the cell membrane to open the ion pumps. The increased ATP synthesis continues for a time even after the ion pumps become inactive.

By improving microcirculation, nutrient absorption, oxygen utilization and more ATP, RLT creates all the necessary conditions for OPTIMAL energy production in the body.
Note: In sick people and people with poor circulation and low oxygen conditions, the body reverts to anaerobic (without oxygen) respiration, sometimes called the fermentation or lactic acid cycle. This inefficient ‘backup generator’, only creates 4 molecules of ATP versus 38 in aerobic respiration PLUS it creates lactic acid as a by-product making your body more acidic. That is like getting 4 MPG (w/o oxygen) versus with Oxygen 38 MPG and creating MORE WASTE in the process. PEMF Therapy pushes the body into aerobic respiration through improved microcirculation and oxygenation effects!
The punchline is there is VERY good research to show how PEMF increases cellular energy in both recharging cell voltage and ATP, and assisting in the release of energy from ATP when needed.

If I could summarize all the amazing benefits of Red Light Therapy in one sentence, I would say that it acts as a Whole-Body Battery Recharger wirelessly charging your body's cells, tissues and organs via magnetic resonance stimulation!
**Evidence and research suggests that cells absorb photons and transform their energy into adenosine triphosphate, the main form of energy that cells utilize. The resulting ATP is then used to power metabolic processes; synthesize DNA, RNA, proteins, enzymes and other products needed to repair and/or regenerate cell components; foster mitosis or cell proliferation; and restore homeostasis.
For example, the increase ATP produced from RLT use may be used to power metabolic processes, synthesize DNA, RNA, proteins, enzymes, and other biological materials needed to repair or regenerate cell and tissue components, foster mitosis or cell proliferation; and/or restore homeostasis. The result is that the absorbed energy is used to repair the tissue, reduce pain and inflammation, and/or restore normalcy.

If you look at the tree upside down, you can see that the lungs share the same branching pattern as the trees do. And it is for good reason! Both the trees and lungs have evolved to serve a similar function - respiration. Trees take in carbon dioxide from the air, use sunlight as energy to turn that carbon dioxide into sugars, and then use those sugars as their food. In this process, trees also make oxygen, which we need in our lungs to create energy (and we need the sugars too). So, our waste, CO2, is needed by trees, while the trees’ waste, O2, is needed by us. We are so interconnected to Nature!
This is one of the most beautiful and inspiring facts about our deep interconnectedness to our beautiful mother earth! It also lies at the heart of creating health and energy in the body. If we are truly using oxygen to create energy in the cells, upwards to 38 molecules of ATP are produced. If our lungs, circulation, or metabolism is impaired in any way that limits this process, the body resorts to glycolysis also called the lactic acid or fermentation cycle. This back up power yields only a measly 4 molecules of ATP and is literally at the root of just about every health problem.
Why?
Firstly you are only producing around 11-12% the energy as full on oxidative phosphorylation and EVERY process in the body requires energy. In one sense, health is an energy game, the more you have the better your health, the less the worse.
Second, the byproduct of glycolysis is lactic acid which acidifies the body, lowers cellular voltage (Transmembrane Potential - other source of energy), and this acidic body with low energy becomes a breeding ground of infection, disease and even cancer.
If you really "get this" and take measures to keep your body fully oxygenated, along with proper nutrition, good circulation ,etc, it is very very hard to get sick.

Here is the overall Reaction in which one molecule of glucose combines with oxygen to yield carbon dioxide, water and energy. This equation summarizes a very complex process in the Krebs Cycle and Electron transport chain. In plants it is the exact reverse in the presence of sunlight.
