Could Cold Laser Be The Answer to Obesity with Stephen Reardon | 018

I can't believe how many issues obesity causes. There's hundreds of issues that people experience simultaneously just because of the weight. If folks only did one thing in their life to get healthy, it needs to be at a healthy body weight. If they do that, then they're omitting 70% of the problems that they could potentially have later on in life.

Dr. Fab Mancini: This is Dr. Fab Mancini. I'm super excited because I'm having one of my dear friends, Stephen Reardon. Steven is an innovator in technology. He has actually created that technology that I believe is going to be one of the leading solutions to one of the biggest epidemics in the United States right now, which is obesity. Now we talk about chronic diseases. We talk about the fact that chronic disease is over 90% of the healthcare costs. We talk about how chronic diseases really ruin people's lives. It's making them go personally bankrupt, and obesity is one of those things. So Steven, it's so great to see you, man. Thank you for making the time from this busy schedule of yours to be with me.

Oh, thank you so much for having me on I always enjoy my time with you for sure.

Dr. Fab Mancini: Well, let's talk a little bit about because there's a lot of people right now that are hearing this podcast or listening or watching it in YouTube. Let's talk a little bit about laser, called laser, and which is one of the leading technologies in healthcare, and I'm a big believer, I'm seeing that technology is really what transforming healthcare more than pharmaceuticals. At this time, we have seen that technology has come in and disrupted the self care industry at a bit, in a big way. So let's talk a little bit about coal laser. Because there's no there's a lot of people out there that may or may not have been exposed to coal laser. Why did you go to coal laser, and what was it about it that you felt was probably going to be one of the most effective ways to reduce the weight on an individual that is either overweight or obese?

Yeah, the biggest thing is the actual energy output LEDs are not strong enough, we've got to drive a certain dosage of energy density into the specific cells, which would be the adipose tissue, right? Which, you know they're they're under several layers of epidermal tissue. So cold laser is the only thing that's got enough power to get there. Now, with that said, it's not just about using a high powered laser or a cold laser, there's also a specific there's a specific function, and there's a marriage between two different type of lasers that we use. One is infrared and one is red. So utilizing both of those, those lasers that are coherent to each other with a specific pulsing sequence allows us to get the energy absorbed into the cells that need it absorbed into. Well,

Dr. Fab Mancini: I know that this has been years in development, but one of the things that I was very impressed when I first became aware of the technology and one of the biggest functional medicine events in the country is the fact that you've done some incredible clinical studies, and that's the reason that the FDA has cleared it for weight loss. Tell me a little bit about what was it about that study that really reinforced to you the value that this will have for the millions of people that are benefiting from it.

Yeah. So the clinical study was mandated by the FDA because, you know, we're we're going after claims that nobody is allowed to say, because they haven't had clearance on it yet. No one's proven fat reduction or weight reduction. All that the FDA and the IRB had seen prior to this was circumferential difference, which is skin tightening. So there's tons of devices out there that can that can achieve that, but none of them have been successful with fat reduction and weight reduction. So for us, it sets us apart. We can confidently say that we are the only non invasive laser with outcome measures for fat reduction and weight reduction. So for us, you know, really, what it does is it makes its mark to the community and says, Hey, this device is going to work. It's been vetted, it's been tested, and it actually has produced some phenomenal outcomes. You know, we did average a little over of half a pound of fat loss per 15 minute treatment, which was substantial, substantial, well, gives the consumer peace of mind, yeah.

Dr. Fab Mancini: And enough about it is this is gonna work. So many doctors have embraced it, like me, that I've recommended to so many of my patients. How has that been for you, making sure that the doctors are not only well aware, because I know your training for the doctors is very extensive, but also for the doctors to be able to understand what it is that this particular laser, through its frequencies, is doing for that patient.

Yeah, educating them is so important because there's so many different options out out there, and there's so many different folks that are marketing certain claims that they shouldn't be right. So differentiating truth from from fiction is something that you know, we have to do on a daily basis. When we speak to providers, you know, it's important that they understand the difference. They understand that, you know, what we say is actually truth, so we provide them with all of the documentation. It's all public information. Anyways, you know, if you do a comparison of us versus them, you're going to see a major difference. You're going to see that we're the only ones that pull fat off the body. We're the only ones that have done it.

Dr. Fab Mancini: Well, let's talk a little bit about the average consumer out there. And you mentioned it a little bit earlier, but I want us to see if we can go a little bit deeper, because you are in this space. You know a lot of the things that consumers are exposed to, not only when they search Google, Amazon and many others, looking for a possible solution. What are some of the things that consumers need to be aware of the differences out there so they really understand then where they actually have this type of laser with the type of frequencies that has taken so many years to develop with the fact that the FDA has vetted it through their clinical trials and given the clear to be able to claim weight loss and weight reduction. What are some of the things out there that you're seeing that are more of a marketing strategy that maybe the consumers will get a little bit confused?

Dr. Fab Mancini: Let's talk a little bit about the mechanism of the laser and how it works, because I think it's important for people to understand that you just said it. This is not just a short term solution. This is a transformation for life. This is something that is a lot deeper than that. So take me in a layman's term. What is it that is really happening when we put the paddles around our waist or around our legs, or, I know that we're going to talk a minute about the skin tightening and all of that, but for the weight loss itself, what's happening with the laser.

Dr. Fab Mancini: Well, let's talk a little bit about another component to the technology, and that is the fact that we have the component of being able to do the skin tightness and help people with cellulite, tell me a little bit about what were you thinking when you were putting that component into the technology.

Dr. Fab Mancini: Well, what would you say right now for people that are really struggling with their weight? I mean, what's beautiful about you is, not only are you the inventor, but you're actually a customer. You've been through this yourself. What do you feel is the greatest emotional value that somebody needs to take into consideration? Because you mentioned a little bit earlier, you know when, when we're overweight and we're when we're obese, it not only impacts our physical health, we know it's a foundation for a lot of the chronic diseases out there, but one of the biggest challenges that I find is the emotional health, the low self esteem, the anxiety, the depression, so all of that that comes with it tell us a little bit about what are some of the feedback that you get from some of your customers Once they start seeing the difference within their own bodies,

Really, the first thing is the motivation factor. You know, these folks have been in a spot for a long time, and they really were not seeing a light at the end of the tunnel. So this is something that is so motivating for these patients. And what's great about it is they actually start making lifestyle changes too, because they see it's working, and they know, hey, like this, this fat is coming off my body without a lot of work. Now I've got time to start working on some things that I know I need to, like the food component, like the sleep component. These folks start getting healthy, and they do it over a long period of time, right? They spoon feed themselves, which is the best way to do it, right? Yeah, you can see those pictures right there, actually, guys, I'm lighter than that. Now. I'll get you a new one. I'm like 180 so this is no exercise at all. This is literally me using this laser over the course of about eight, nine months, you know, I had a lot to lose, and I didn't do anything extra. Exercise is important for long term health, but I did this without exercising. I did this without dieting, you know. So what's amazing is these people know I can do this now, and I'm going to start doing these other important activities to better my life as well. So it's, it's really a great way for them to take a holistic approach at this and to be able to work on these addictions they have with food, emotional eating. You know, you're sleeping better so you have more energy, right? Your hormones start to balance out when we get better sleep and we release fat. Well, guess what? Those grout that the levels of ghrelin reduce and the leptin increases so we're more satiated. You know, you're a better person, you're a better husband or wife, you're a better father or mother, you're a better friend, and you're better professionally. You know, my brain function is through the roof. I can't believe how many issues obesity causes. And you know, we name the statistics, but there's hundreds, hundreds of issues that people experience simultaneously just because of the weight. If folks only did one thing in their life to get healthy, it needs to be at a healthy body weight. If they do that, then they're omitting 70% of the problems that they could potentially have later on in life.

Dr. Fab Mancini: Well, thank you so much. I really appreciate your time, and for those of you that are listening, I just want to reiterate that obesity and weight gain has become one of the biggest challenges that we have right now in our healthcare system, in our personal lives, and like Steven said, if we can just focus on trying to do that now, I know, and the reason that I'm such a big fan is because I seem, with my own eyes, that many times people try different diets and all of that and just doesn't work, and it's not sustainable for many reasons, but when you do a technology that's been proven and clear by the FDA, the Food Drug Administration, now, all of the sudden, you give you a little bit more confidence to be able to keep that weight off for a long time, for enough time for you to begin to change some of the lifestyle choices. And it just gives you that confidence to say this time is going to be different. So I'm going to go ahead and put a link here where you can actually learn more about this, and if you're interested in learning about this technology, and also how to find a provider that has this technology, this will be an opportunity for you to those do so too, or if you have any questions regarding this technology, I'm going to put a link right here that will guide you and give you an opportunity to speak to a specialist that will give you that information and those answers. So Steven, thank you so much. It was great seeing you. For those of you that are listening to. Please make sure you check this out invis red, one of the leading technologies and innovative technologies in healthcare right now, and potentially the one that is going to solve some of these obesity issues that we're having. God bless you and see you soon.

Thanks, doc.
