The
American Medical Association recognizes a distinct form of depression caused
by lack of natural light.
The high rate of depression
people experience in winter has been linked in recent years to inadequate
light stimulation. In 1984, the American Medical Association officially
recognized a form of depression called Seasonal Affective Disorder , or SAD.
In late autumn and winter when people are exposed to less outdoor light, SAD
sufferers become depressed, tend to oversleep, and crave carbohydrates. A
commonly prescribed treatment for SAD is exposure to high levels of natural
spectrum lighting.
The Right
Light Increases Productivity in the Workplace.
Companies that use natural spectrum fluorescent lights have reported reductions in absenteeism, accidents, and error rates and increases in productivity. In
Light - Medicine of the Future
, Jacob Liberman, O.D., Ph.D. writes that natural spectrum lighting in the workplace "creates significantly lower stress on the nervous system than standard cool white fluorescent lighting and reduces the number of absences due to illness."

SOLD ON THE POSITIVE EFFECTS
"I installed the lights in my office and in our conference rooms unannounced to see if there would be any reaction. We got regular positive comments but few people realized the improvement was just the lighting. I am sold on the positive effects of the full spectrum lighting and we installed it throughout our new building."
- John M. Segal, North American Products, Jasper, IN
ENERGY LEVEL AND ATTITUDE
"We noticed an immediate change in the staffs energy level and attitude. We have in fact had comments from people who visit our office. They know that something is different and that the atmosphere of the office has changed. They are often surprised when they hear it was simply a change of the light bulbs that is having such an impact."
- Linda C. Walker, Walker Publications, Fort Worth, TX

- Ed Timlin, Principal, Virginia Beach, VA
CHANGED WITH THE LIGHTING
"I used to tell people that I was a 'morning person' because by 3:00 p.m. I would want to take a nap. Well, that has certainly changed with the lighting. I no longer feel tired in the middle of the day and feel that the day goes by more quickly."
- Judy Carberry, Legal Administrator, Bourne, Noll & Kenyon, Summit, New Jersey
INCREASED ENERGY...HEIGHTENED SENSE OF WELL-BEING
"The entire staff has reported increased energy, fewer headaches, less problems with moodiness, and a generally heightened sense of well-being. Naturally this has translated into less absenteeism."

MORE RELAXED AT THE END OF THE DAY
