A large study of 87,577 adults found that greater exposure to bright daytime light was associated with a significantly lower risk of developing dementia over
Light entering the eyes regulates brain chemistry and synchronizes vital circadian rhythms that control… Appetite, Energy, Mood, Sleep, Libido and so much more.
“Mal-illumination is to Light as Malnutrition is to Food.”
.
Science of Light (SOL) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the legacy of photobiology pioneer, Dr. John Ott, the father of full-spectrum light technology.
SOL’s Mission:
To enlighten humanity of the essential need for daily light hygiene to support wellness & reduce the risk of — mal-illumination.
SOL’s Mandate:
Share freely our years of research and provide the lighting technology that mitigates the indoor epidemic of mal-illumination.
“We are all light deficient and this deficiency may be the source of our physical and emotional problems.” — Dr. John Ott, Health and Light, 3,000,000+ copies sold
We spend most of our time indoors unwittingly starving for essential natural light that our genes are programmed to respond to.
Being stuck in “biological darkness” due to reduced time in natural daylight profoundly affects every body system.
Limited-spectrum indoor light adversely impacts immunity while full-spectrum sunlight enhances immunity & vitality.
“We have finally learned that light is a nutrient much like food, and like food, the wrong kind can make us ill and the right kind can help keep us well.”
— Dr. John Ott
The different wavelengths of natural light are in fact “photo” nutrients that are akin to vitamins required for normal cell function, growth and development.
“Each separate frequency or color of sunlight has nutritional value for cells.” — Dr Jack Kruse, Neurosurgeon
Science of Light has developed Nutritional Light Technology… the “fullest” spectrum light source.
SOLshine Photo Nutrition™
SOL’s technology builds on Dr. Ott’s original full-spectrum light technology by intrinsically improving the spectral quality and biological benefits that help ignite metabolism and regulates brain chemistry & circadian rhythms that control appetite, energy, mood, sleep, libido and so much more.
Don't Take Your Vitamins in the Dark
Mal-illumination: Dr. Jacob Liberman
Author Light Medicine of the Future
“What most people don’t realize is that light entering by way of the eyes plays a crucial role in the process of metabolism, breaking down all of the nutrients we get from food, as well as vitamins and minerals, and making use of them.
If we are not in an environment that has the full spectrum of light energy entering the eyes, then some of those vitamins and minerals won’t have the appropriate light energy traversing through the eyes to literally activate them to break down and be used by way of the body.” — Dr. Jacob Liberman
