A FLICKER OF HOPE COMES FROM SCIENTIFIC STUDIES

We all have gamma rhythm in our brains. A healthy brain has a gamma frequency of 40Hz. For people with cognitive decline — this rhythm is deviated.
Alzheimer’s disease destroys neurons and their connections in parts of the brain involved in memory. It’s caused in part by abnormal levels of naturally occurring plaques that collect between neurons and disrupt cell function.
But there is hope. Neuroscientists at the leading brain health research institutes seeking to end Alzheimer’s disease focused research on light therapy — discovering that flickering light shone into the eye induced healthy gamma oscillation in the brain. Their work shows that pulsating light can stimulate the brain to function at a healthy rhythm. These studies are the first scientific findings offering noninvasive treatment for Alzheimer’s.

I am a psychiatrist. I do work in the prevention of cognitive issues, such as Alzheimer’s. I purchased BEACON40® for two family members diagnosed with moderate dementia. They've been using the lights for two years and, cognitively, they have not declined. It's so encouraging to see what BEACON40® is providing for my family... More time.

40Hz LIGHT THERAPY IS BACKED BY SCIENCE

FACT: Healthy brains feature brain waves or rhythms that oscillate at roughly 40Hz. These gamma frequencies are associated with higher-order cognitive function.
FACT: A buildup of amyloid plaque inhibits brain waves and disrupts healthy brain rhythm.
FACT: Researchers studied the impact of light therapy—discovering that a 40Hz flickering light shined into the eye mimicked and induced healthy gamma rhythm in the brain.
FACT: 40Hz visual stimulation, given one hour a day for 6 weeks, had dramatic positive effects on brain function leading to 40-50% reduction in amyloid plaque in the hippocampus.

TECHNOLOGY

FAST-TRACKING SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH FOR SAFE HOME USE

  • The lights are made of multiple LED lights on a printed circuit board. LED lights are 90% more efficient than incandescent bulbs.
  • The LED lights do not produce heat or burn out.
  • Pulsing LED lights are safe and noninvasive, creating no discomfort for users.
  • Daily exposure can complement regular routines including reading, watching TV or meal prep.
  • BEACON40 lights pulsate at 40Hz, which is known to be the most effective frequency to stimulate healthy gamma waves in the brain.
  • Brain waves in this frequency are associated with working memory, attention and coordination.
  • Always consult your doctor when supplementing your wellness routine.

How 40Hz Light Therapy Works

could there be an alzheimers cure

Passive Therapy

The best way to benefit from a wellness routine is when it’s a habit. Daily exposure can complement regular routines including reading, watching television or meal preparation

Safe and Silent

Easy to use, the light systems fit beautifully into any home or office. Set your preferences to turn the lights on/off, set daily timers and adjust the tone and brightness.
