I. Introduction
Congratulations! You've just bought a Luminette®. Welcome to the world of
portable light therapy.
Before using your Luminette®, please read this notice carefully and keep it
somewhere safe. Also, please take the time to familiarise yourself with your new
appliance using Figure 1.
A. The role of light
The human brain uses the light/dark cycle to synchronise internal functions
including mood, appetite, digestion, sleep, libido, etc. These circadian rhythms
oscillate over a period of 24 hours, forming your biological clock.
Melatonin is what is often called the sleep hormone. The brain starts producing
it when the sun sets, in order to encourage us to sleep. But as the as the sun rises
and the light increases, the brain stops producing it. We get up easily, full of energy.
As well as regulating our body clock, light also greatly affects mood, increases
vigilance and improves physical and intellectual performance.
