Medical intended use of this appliance is to treat the symptoms of SAD (seasonal

energy levels, to adjust circadian rhythms and make people feel more awake.
“SAD Light” is safe and medically proven to provide relief from the symptoms of
SAD.
How does the “SAD Light” work?
In autumn and winter, the seasons with the least sunlight because of shorter days,
the lack of sunlight and a problem with certain brain chemicals stops the hypothal-
amus working properly. The lack of light is thought to affect the production of the
hormone melatonin (that makes you sleepy).
“SAD Light” uses bright lights to simulate the sunlight during the darker autumn
and winter, whilst eliminating the dangerous UV rays contained in sunlight. The
additional light helps adjust the levels of melatonin that can help the symptoms of
SAD.

It may cause people to:
Need more sleep

•

summer.
