Safe Bright Light Therapy
from —The "Full-Spectrum" SAD Light Pioneers
If you're looking for safe, full-spectrum light therapy to reduce the risk of mal-illumination or support someone struggling with mood disorders like clinical depression, SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), or circadian rhythm disruptions (CRD), it's important to be aware of a little known, serious health concern.
LIGHT EYE HAZARD
“LED light exposure that is not balanced with full (spectrum) sunlight loaded with the red parts of the spectrum is always damaging to your biology.”
— Alexander Wunsch, MD, PhD, Photobiology Expert
Common SAD light boxes do NOT include sufficient red light and lack essential near infrared light (NIR) that's absolutely necessary to mitigate retinal inflamation.

SOLshine Photo Nutrition™
- 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 that's truly —unlike any other SAD bright light or FSL.
SOLshine builds on the technology of the father of full-spectrum light, Dr. John Ott.
- Our founders were SAD light therapy pioneers and originally manufactured and marketed the patented, full-spectrum Ott Light System (1987-97).
SOLshine intrinsically improves the spectral quality and biological benefits by
- Increasing the color rendering index (CRI) of R9 red to 97 CRI (average)
- R9 is a very important CRI metric.
- Most light sources will be sadly lacking in naturally required red content.
- This fact is hidden due to averaging of CRI calculations which do not include R9.
- Adding a “99” CRI R15 for natural skin tone
- Adding a trace amount of ultraviolet light
- Adding five (5) different wavelengths of essential near-infrared light (NIR).
Near Infrared Light is Absolutely an Essential Photo Nutrient for Health & Safety
- NIR and red light helps reduce the risk of retinal-inflammation by priming the cells in the retina for "repair & regeneration."
- NIR is critical to the production of ATP, the fuel cells need for metabolism and all vital functions.
- NIR is essential for the production of "subcellular" (mitochondria) as well as "circulatory" (pineal gland) melatonin.
- NIR is especially beneficial at night to prepare for sleep and a “must” when using computers and other electronic screens.
"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."
