Why use a daylight lamp?
When the hours of daylight are noticeably decreased in autumn and people increasingly stay inside, the effects
of a lack of light may cumulate. This is often described as „winter depression". The symptoms can present them-
selves in a number of ways:
• Imbalance
• Subdued mood
• Lack of energy and listlessness
• Generally feeling under the weather
The cause of these symptoms is the fact that light, particularly sunlight, is essential for life and has a direct effect
upon the human body. Sunlight indirectly controls the production of melatonin, which is released into the blood
only in darkness. This hormone tells the body when it is time to sleep. In the months when there is less sunlight,
therefore, production of melatonin increases. This makes it harder to get up in the morning, since the body's
functions are shut down. If you use the daylight lamp immediately after waking up in the morning—thus as early
as possible—you can end the production of melatonin so that your mood takes a positive turn. In addition, light
deficiency also hinders production of the happiness hormone serotonin, which decisively affects our well-being.
So application of light involves quantitative changes in hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain, which can
affect our level of activity, our feelings and our well-being. Light can help reverse this hormone imbalance. To
compensate for such a hormonal imbalance, the brightlight creates a suitable replacement for natural sunlight.
In the medical field, brightlights are used to compensate for the effects of a lack of light. Brightlights simulate
daylight over 10,000 lux (15-20 cm distance). The light can influence the human body and be used as a treatment
or as a preventative measure. Normal electric light is not sufficient to influence the hormonal balance. Because in
a well-lit office the illuminance level amounts to just 500 lux.
