We Emit a Visible Light That Vanishes When We Die, Says Surprising New Study
- A 2009 investigation led by scientists from Canadian institutions revealed that living organisms emit extremely faint visible light, which ceases immediately upon death.
- The study followed from previous research into biophoton emissions, focusing on whole animals and plants to understand how light signals reflect biological activity and stress.
- Using sensitive cameras, four live mice were recorded emitting faint photons for an hour before euthanasia, followed by another hour of imaging their dimmed emissions after death.
- The authors observed that live mice emitted a significantly higher amount of light compared to the nearly extinguished photon emissions seen after death, emphasizing that the contrast in photon counts was unmistakable.
- This fading glow suggests biophoton emissions could enable new non-invasive methods to monitor tissue health and biological stress in living organisms and plants.

Humans Give Off Light That Extinguishes at Death, New Study Reveals
Being made in the image of God could include giving off a “glow” until bodily death. A 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 …
You Have an Invisible Light That Vanishes When You Die, Science Confirms
A new study suggests that living creatures—including humans—emit an ultra-faint glow of visible light that disappears at the moment of death. It’s not an aura, not magic, and not a TikTok wellness trend. It’s photons, and science just caught them in the act. Researchers from the University of Calgary and the National Research Council of Canada recently published findings in The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters detailing their investigation …
Scientists Discover Humans Glow And That Light That Goes Out When We Die
human-glow A new study is the first to reveal how all living things, including humans, glow and that light goes out upon death. The glow is caused by a stream of low-energy “biophotons” that are invisible to the naked eye and they cease to be produced upon death. The illuminating discovery has not come without some controversy, however. According to Alex Wilkins of New Scientist, “these ‘biophotons’ are extremely difficult to detect and disentan…
