SAD (Seasonal affective disorder) is also known as winter depression and it is a condition that brings on feelings of depression during the winter months. Many people don’t even realize they have SAD and sufferers are affected at the same time every year, as the seasons change. Seasonal Affective Disorder is related to the availability of sunlight, which is less abundant in winter. Symptoms vary but generally include wanting to sleep longer and having less energy. Sufferers also tend to suffer from feelings of mild to moderate depression in winter and they often crave sugary, sweet foods and carbohydrates and are more likely to gain weight during this time.

Light therapy is believed to one of the most effective treatments for SAD and this involves being exposed to specially manufactured strong lights or light boxes for a number of hours every day during the autumn and winter months.

The Apollo Health GoLite P1 Blue Spectrum Light Therapy Device features blue spectrum wavelengths to combat SAD and other mood disorders. It is extremely lightweight and compact and has a neat stand that flips around to support the light. This then folds back and acts as a cover and protector for the light, making it ideal for taking away on holidays and business trips. The led lights are long lasting and the unit also features a digital timer and an automatic shut down function, as well as a clock so don’t get too relaxed and forget to go to work.
