The Verilux® TwiLight™ Blue Light Therapy System brings you natural, drug-free therapy developed to regulate sleep patterns and increase individual energy levels and productivity. The blue light signals the body to stop the production of melatonin, a natural human hormone which synchronizes and regulates the body's circadian rhythms. This can have beneficial effects for addressing certain types of insomnia. Use of the TwiLight™ helps align your body's clock for more energized days and restful nights.

System developed by NASA. 36W high-output 1000-hour bulb produces soothing 460nm blue spectrum light. Compact decorative design fits easily on any tabletop or desktop. Electronic balalst and Flicker Elimination Technology™ assure no-buzz operation and instant-on, flicker-free illumination. High/low brightness adjusts to individual preference. Use for up to 30 minutes per day, 2 hours before bedtime or right after rising in the morning. Turn on the TwiLight™ Blue Light Therapy System for 30 minutes and the blue light will help retard the production of pineal melatonin. For older people, use of the TwiLight™ before bedtime allows them to be more alert into the evening hours and experience a more restful sleep when the body does produce melatonin later in the sleep cycle. Teens and young adults find themselves better able to function at school and work after they have used the TwiLight™ right after rising in the morning, as it turns off the production of melatonin. Product weight: 2lb.

Note: This is not a bedside reading lamp, rather a therapy lamp to assist your body in regulating its 24 hour sleep cycle. There should be no blue light in the environment after using the TwiLight™ at night – no TV, no computer, no compact fluorescents – only yellow incandescent bulbs or candles.
