This is just amazing!

Red light exposure (to the optic nerve) is associated with:
* less inflammation
* activation of the immune system
* fewer neutrophil extracellular traps (web-like structures made by immune cells) to trap invading microorganisms
* increased fatty acid production
* reduced platelet activation (platelets are essential to forming clots, so this leads to less clot formation)

So avoid the freeways and take the city streets. Waiting at those red lights will be good for you.
