The light from our sun is another source of energy that is provided to us more abundantly by completing a detox, because light is particu- larly found in the detox foods . There is a huge amount of potential energy available by grasping this concept, so I thought we should look at it briefly, starting with photosynthesis.

The photosynthesis reaction is:

6CO2 + 6H2O + photons = C6H12O6 + 6O2

ie: Carbon + Water + Light = Glucose + Oxygen

In the first stage, light-dependent reactions or photosynthetic reactions (also called Light Reactions) capture the light energy within Chlorophyll and use it to make high-energy molecules . These are then converted into simple carbohydrates (glucose) during the Calvin cycle which does not require any further light .

Where has the light gone?

According to simple laws of physics, energy never disappears from our universe, it simply transfers from one form into another . This means the light energy from the sun has been trapped by chlorophyll and then stored within the simple plant sugar called glucose .

More than light
