What is Biophotonics?
Biophotonics is the scientific study of the relationship between light, energy and the human body. Placing emphasis on the importance of light and energy in sustaining life, the word itself comes from the Greek ’bios’, meaning ’life’, and ’phos’, meaning ’light’.
What is Biophotonic Glass?
Biophotonic glass, also known as Miron or Violet glass, is a type of deeply coloured, almost opaque glass which is thought to be energised by light. In use since Ancient Egyptian times, Biophotonic glass naturally filters the spectrum of visible sunlight, only allowing through Infra Red and UVA light, or ’violet’ light. Because of its natural ability to block light, Biophotonic glass is commonly used in organic skincare packaging as it protects precious contents from perishing in sunlight, increasing their shelf life and effectiveness.
What are the benefits of drinking from Biophotonic Glass?
While Biophotonic glass is used to preserve cosmetics, it is also being produced for use as water bottles. Violet light has a higher frequency than any other form of light and is also the same frequency as the human nervous system. It can penetrate Biophotonic glass, designed to energise its contents for the benefit of our health by preserving alkalinity and maintaining freshness.
Drinking from a Biophotonic glass bottle is not only environmentally friendly, minimising the use of harmful plastic and BPA/BPS consumption, but some believe it also has the potential to support general wellbeing by maintaining the natural energy our system needs for healthy bodily function. 1 When filled, Biophotonic glass water bottles can be 'charged' in direct sunlight for around an hour to allow UV rays to penetrate the glass and 'boost' the water.
