Let there be light! Scientists have proven that biophotons- or photons of light produced by the biological system- are used by both human cells and whole animals to communicate with one another. What impact could this have on our consciousness?
To answer this question, we must get a better understanding of biophotons. These ultra-weak light particles appear to originate and concentrate in DNA of the cell’s nucleus, and quickly carry large amounts of data to cells in the human body. They appear within the visible spectrum, ranging from near-infrared through violet
