  • Your Brain Glows And Scientists Don't Know Why (REAL

Scientists have finally measured the brain’s own faint light, called “biophotons,” from outside the skull. In a dark room, 20 volunteers wore EEG caps while photon-amplifying tubes hovered near their occipital and temporal lobes. The sensors picked up a steady trickle of visible-range photons, which were proof that our brains really do glow. The team then asked people to switch tasks, such as opening and closing their eyes. The photon pattern shifted only when the task changed, hinting that the glow somehow links to cognition. Because biophotons come from energy-making reactions, researchers wonder if neurons might use them for signaling or if the glow is just a by-product. They call the method “photoencephalography,” as if this wasn’t complicated enough, and think it could grow into a new, noninvasive way to study brain states, even if the photons turn out to have no thinking role and we’re just all “glow-brains.”
