			<title><![CDATA[Brite Box Sunlight Simulator 410D Lux]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[Changes in the amount & quality of light during winter months can have a profound effect on a person's physical & emotional well-being. Insufficient exposure to light can lead to a wide range of conditions. The clinically recognised condition known as Seasonal Affective Disorder (or the Winter Blues) is one of the best known. Typical symptoms of this condition include:<br /> <br />
Depression <br />
Lethargy <br />
Anxiety <br />
Sleeplessness <br />
Social problems <br /> <br />
Research has shown that between 5 & 10% of the world's population can suffer with severe SAD symptoms & up to 25% suffer with milder symptoms.<br />
Light affects the human body in a number of ways including:<br />
Determining the sleeping/waking cycle <br />
Affecting levels of melatonin, adrenalin, seratonin & dopamine (which have influence on systems such as moods, emotions, eating & sleeping). <br />
Affecting the thyroid gland which in turn affects the metabolism. <br /> <br />
Light treatment has been consistently proven to have a positive effect in aiding the treatment of these conditions. It can also be used to treat other conditions including:<br />
Classical depression <br />
Pre-menstrual syndrome <br />
Jet lag <br /> <br />
