Humans Give Off Light That Extinguishes at Death, New Study Reveals

Tré Goins-Phillips : May 14, 2025  Faithwire

"In Him [Jesus] was life, and the life was the light of men." -John 1:4

BCN Editor's note: As I read this article, I was immediately reminded of the phenomenon discovered back in 2016, of the "spark" that is emitted from a human egg at the moment of conception.

newly released study of ultraweak photon emission (UPE) found not only that human beings give off light —a glow so faint it's impossible to see with the naked eye—but that the glow disappears upon death.

The fact humans glow was first discovered in 2009. This latest data, compiled by scientists from the University of Calgary and published in The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, analyzed the phenomenon, which comes via the emission of biophotons, in mice before and after death, concluding the light quickly fades when organisms die.

"The fact that ultraweak photon emission is a real thing is undeniable at this point," the study's senior author, Dan Oblak, told New Scientist. "This really shows that this is not just an imperfection or caused by other biological processes. It's really something that comes from all living things."

As for how it works, the "powerhouse" cell—the mitochondria— releases microscopic amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS), a byproduct while it is producing the energy needed to sustain life. The ROS then react with other molecules in the body, like proteins, lipids, and fluorophones, which, in turn, emit biophotons that give off light...
