SOLshine Photo Nutrition™
SOL bioBulb™ — All-Day Light Nutrition
SAD Rated — 10,940 LUX @ 2' (SOL bioBulb™) - 14,840 LUX @ 2' (SOL PhotoVites™)
All-day “personal” ambient full-spectrum light that delivers Dr. Ott's principle of continuous light nutrition. Unlike common therapy-only devices, the bioBulb also provides light "showering" all day long, addressing mal-illumination where you live and work.
“Mal-illumination is to light as malnutrition is to food.”— Dr. John Ott — HEALTH AND LIGHT

SAD Rating
SAD Rated — 10,940 LUX @ 2'
SOLshine is the fullest-spectrum nutritional light source that includes 'visible & invisible' light wavelengths akin to natural sunlight. SOLshine emits “balanced” full-spectrum light (FSL) based on an innovative formula unlike any other SAD bright light or FSL.
About SOL bioBulb™
Built on Dr. Ott's Foundation
Dr. John Nash Ott's foundational discovery was simple but profound: living cells require continuous, complete-spectrum light as a daily nutritional requirement. Not occasional therapy—daily nutrition, the way food nourishes your body.
The bioBulb operationalizes this insight. Rather than delivering only bright morning therapy and leaving you in mal-illuminated environments the rest of the day, the bioBulb can be positioned overhead and provides consistent full-spectrum light "showering" wherever you spend time: workspace, reading corner, bedroom, kitchen. This continuous exposure is the mechanism Ott documented as essential for reducing risk of dis-ease, and enhancing immune health.
The bioBulb design:
- All-day positioning – Bright therapeutic light at desk level or ambient, overhead full-spectrum light for maximum visual acuity
- Full-spectrum + NIR architecture – Enhanced red (98 CRI), five NIR wavelengths, trace UV—the fullest spectrum akin to sunshine.
- Non-intrusive delivery – Unlike common bright light therapy panels, the bioBulb can be positioned for all-day use to "shower" the user much like a grow light showers a plant.

Reduced disease – Ott documented that continuous full-spectrum light exposure throughout the day enhanced health and reduced the risk of disease.
Circadian rhythm synchronization – SOL bioBulbs are SAD Rated 10,940 LUX @ 2'
Cellular energy production (ATP) – NIR wavelengths (780–900 nm) are absorbed by mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, generating ATP—cellular fuel. The bioBulb's five NIR wavelengths directly support mitochondrial function throughout your day, providing continuous energy production support rather than occasional intervention.
Retinal health and repair – Red light and NIR prime retinal cells for repair and regeneration. Because the bioBulb provides consistent red spectrum exposure (98 CRI, R9 at 97 CRI), it reduces chronic retinal inflammation from mal-illumination—a benefit that accumulates with daily use.
Metabolic regulation – Dr. Alexander Wunsch, MD, PhD: "The vast majority of the energy your body needs to maintain systemic equilibrium comes from environmental infrared light exposure." The bioBulb's consistent NIR delivery throughout your day directly supports this metabolic necessity.

What you need to know: The bioBulb is designed primarily as a PERSONAL therapeutic, nutritional light. This makes "continuous light nutrition" practical: you can provide Ott's principle of daily, consistent full-spectrum lightwithout special equipment.
The fundamental problem Ott identified was not just "people don't get enough light"—it was "modern environments deliver light that lacks the spectrum living cells require." The bioBulb solves this by providing the fullest-spectrum light akin to natural sunshine.
Primary use case: Ambient light throughout your day. You spend ~16 hours indoors in environments with incomplete light spectra (office fluorescents, home incandescents, screens). The bioBulb addresses this by providing continuous, full-spectrum exposure—not as occasional therapy, but as daily light nutrition.
Ideal for:
- Personal workspace lighting
- People who want continuous light nutrition
- Anyone living in environments with consistent mal-illumination (fluorescent offices, windowless rooms, dimmed home lighting)
- Enhancing visual acuity and color rendering
"We are all light deficient and this deficiency may be the source of our physical and emotional problems."

"One third of the energy your body consumes comes from the food you eat. The vast majority of the energy your body needs to maintain systemic equilibrium comes from environmental infrared light exposure."

"When we speak about the quality of light and its importance to the well being of all living organisms, the contributions of Dr. John Ott stand out above those of other researchers in the field."
