According to Dr. Reider, when shopping for a light therapy lamp, you should “look for a full spectrum visible light source with at least 10,000 lux,” he says. This one from Carex has that and more, including a glare-resistant screen and an adjustable angled stand. The light is powerful enough that you’re able to sit up to a full foot away so that you don’t feel like you have to be positioned right next to the lamp to reap the benefits.
Lux: 10,000
Screen size: 16” x 13”
Amazon rating: 4.3/5 stars
An Amazon reviewer says: “I was feeling an extreme lack of energy after the fall time change. Not just sleepy but also muscle fatigue. I purchased this lamp, and the results have been incredible, and I would not believe it if I hadn’t experienced it myself. From day one of using this lamp, things began to change. My energy level at 30 minutes was too high, almost making me hyper, so slowly, I decreased the amount of time (as recommended in the literature) until I found what worked best for me was 20 minutes. I read, pay my bills, write my to-do list, etc. during that time. I do it first thing in the morning around 8 AM. Most notably, before the light therapy, I was taking one two hour nap a day and still feeling tired. Now I take 1 half-hour nap a day and feel full of energy. Amazing!”
