Sponsor's own description
It is an interventional study in which 60 women estimated to enroll according to random allocation and assigned into two groups equal. The study group will receive active low level laser in addition to diet recommendations while the control group will stick to the same line of treatment but with sham laser application. The laser consists of semiconductor and operates at a wavelength of 650 nanometre. The laser installed in the watch comprises 10 individual laser beams for the wrist and an additional adapter for nasal stimulation. The output power is 5 megawatt, but it can also be adjusted. The device operates at an ambient temperature of -20 to +40 ° C and a relative humidity of ≤ 85%. The laser watch can be used for a variable irradiation period of 10-60 min. the device will be applied on specific acupuncture points (N acupuncture point, Radial artery acupuncture points, and ulnar artery acupuncture points) combined with nasal laser irradiation at the same time, once per day, 3 times per week for three months
