Other uses and advantages of living with full-spectrum lighting:

• Vita-Lite Floor Lamp is a multi-use product as it is ideal for home and office lighting, providing glare free natural light for people and plants, as well as birds and other pets.  It is an excellent light source for crafts, sewing or any visually demanding task enabling the ability to see colors and detail more accurately.
• Most lighting in homes, schools, offices, factories, stores, is so bad that many health disorders can be traced to lack of natural lighting.  Natural sunlight and various forms of light therapy can help re-establish the body's natural circadian-rythm (the body's inner clock) which controls timing of sleep, hormone production, body temperature, and other biological functions.  Disturbances in this rythm can lead to health problems such as depression (SAD -Seasonal Affective Disorder) and sleep disorders.  Light therapy and the use of natural full- spectrum lighting such as Vita-Lite are becoming an integral treatment for many related health conditions.  It is recommended when using full-spectrum light products as therapy to seek the guidance of your health care profession.
• Other uses include:  Vita-lite provides full-spectrum products to meet the needs for plant/horticulture lighting, aquarium lighting and reptile lighting.  Call (760) 723-8667 for product information related to these interests and other uses.
