Light-Blocking Glasses

Our body clock responds to a variety of 'cues' in our environment, the strongest of which is light. A pulse of sufficiently bright light at the appropriate time will move (or 'phase shift') our body clock forward ('phase advance') or back ('phase delay').

Phase shifting requires both a 'seek light' phase, and an 'avoid light' phase. Our 'light blocking' glasses are intended for use during the 'avoid light' phase (ordinary sunglasses are not dark enough). Light Blocking Glasses are sold separately.

How Does Bright Light Therapy Work?

Experiments indicate that light plays a major role in the secretion of melatonin. Melatonin is a natural hormone made by your body's pineal gland. When light hits your eye, the retina transmits impulses to your body clock, located in the hypothalamus which regulates sleeping, eating, body temperature and libido. Clinical research shows that The Litebook®'s wavelength may assist in regulating the body's melatonin levels. It also boosts a feel-good neurotransmitter (serotonin), which makes you feel content and energized.

Why Is The Litebook®
Superior To Other Lightboxes?
  • 50% less usage time needed
  • Feature-rich compact design
  • Completely portable (Elite™ model)
  • Use on airliners and in motor vehicles

Unlike most existing light therapy devices, which are large and clunky in design, Litebook® products are extremely compact, lightweight yet durable and aesthetically pleasing. The Litebook® Elite™ also features several innovative elements: built-in rechargeable lithium ion battery with charge indicator for true portability, usage timer (4 settings) and international power adapter for use worldwide.

Most significantly, Litebook products’ usage times are typically far shorter than other fluorescent light devices (up to 50% less) due to Litebook’s white LEDs of optimal spectral wavelengths.
