The LEVITY Program is a drug-free, clinically proven program that treats women's most common, misdiagnosed and mistreated mood problem - The "Body Blues".
At any given time, as many as 1 out of
every 4 women suffers from a syndrome for which she has
no name. The textbook definition for this syndrome is "vegetative
symptoms of depression." But now, with the publication
of When Your Body
Gets the Blues by Marie-Annette
Brown, Ph.D., R.N., F.A.A.N, and New York Times bestselling
author Jo Robinson, millions of women across the country
will be calling it by a more user-friendly term - the "Body
Blues."
In the past, women with this all-too common syndrome have had to choose between no therapy and drug therapy. The innovative therapy known as the LEVITY Program is the first drug-free, clinically proven solution for the Body Blues.
The LEVITY program is based on three deceptively simple activities:
1. Going for a brisk outdoor walk five times a week
2. Getting more bright light during the day but less light at night.
3. Taking the a specific combinations
of vitamins once a day. (The formula used in the study is
the Levity Mood Elevating Supplement)
Dr. Brown and her colleagues tested the program on 112 women spanning the ages from 19-78. In just 8 weeks, tests showed that the women had experienced a remarkable turn around. They felt more energetic, better able to cope with stress, less anxious, more joyful, less reliant on food for comfort, less angry and more confident in their own abilities.
Remarkably, the women's depression scores were cut in half! And on a test of general well-being, the women's average score moved from the worst to the best possible category in just two months. These are the kind of results one expects to see from state-of-the-art antidepressants. Yet, as Dr. Brown explains, they can also come from getting more sunlight, brisk exercise, and the right combination of nutrients.
The University of Washington research team interviewed all the women who participated in the program at the study's conclusion. Their interviews revealed that the LEVITY Program had greatly improved the women's lives. One woman made the following comment: "Before the study, my mood was about four or five, now it's eight or nine. It's really been quite a change... I learned that I can make changes and I can make my life better!" Another woman who completed the LEVITY Program said, "I know that if I ever feel blue again, I have my own way of feeling better - I won't have to run to my doctor for a prescription."
