citazione

Even white light can have a therapeutic effect. Seasonal affective disorder, or SAD, produces anxiety and depression in some people who live in areas with little natural sunlight during the winter months. Luminotherapy, or the use of lights with the same photosensitivity as sunlight (about 55,000 K), has proven to be an effective treatment.
