What is Far-Infrared ray?
A ray of sunlight consists of the seven colors of red, orange, yellow,
green, blue, indigo and violet. These are the rays visible to our eye,
and the sunlight also consists of the infrared ray, ultra-violet ray, x-ray
and microwave, which are not visible to our eye. Of these many rays,
the
German astronomer William Harschel found the infrared ray in 1800. While
researching the heat effects of the seven different colors, he found
that temperature in the colors increase as you go from violet to red. However,
the increase in
temperature didn’t stop even after red, a space where no visible color
was present. He named this ray, not visible to the human eye, but possessing
very strong heat effects, the infrared ray.
Far Infrared Ray is a form of electromagnetic light energy from the sun. It falls within the same family of the Infrared Ray in the light spectrum, but due to its longer wavelengths, FIR cannot be seen by human eyes, just like the ultraviolet ryas and X-rays. This radiant energy is absolutely essential for human beings and all living things in the world.
Why is FIR so unique to human body ?
FIR has the ability to penetrate, refract, radiate and reflect. The human body can absorb FIR because of its deep penetrating ability. When FIR penetrates through skin to the subcutaneous tissues, it transforms from light energy into heat energy. The thermal effect within the deep layers of the tissues causes blood vessels and capillaries to dilate, promoting a better blood circulation, and the heat so produced helps to get rid of body toxins and metabolic wastes through sweating.
Toxic substances are secreted by sweating through the dermis-layer fat glands

The effects of far-infrared rays
A) Promotes blood circulation within the human body.
B) Warms up our body and helps maintain body temperature.
C) Breaks down the harmful metals and help with its excretion.
D) Has deodorizing, purifying and antidote effects.
E) Disrupts the spread of germs and fungi harmful to the body.
F) Promote and activate growth in plants.
G) Purifies the polluted air.
H) Promotes metabolism.
