The LEVITY Program Inside the LEVITY Program
The Three Elements of the LEVITY Program TM
The three elements of the LEVITY are light, exercise and
vitamins (LEVITY Program = Light, Exercise, and Vitamin
Intervention TherapY). The program is an all-natural regimen
that is a safe, easy and effective treatment for the "Body
Blues".
(1) Light - Getting more very bright light during the day, but less at night.
Many people are surprised to learn that light exposure can
have an impact on their mood. They may also be surprised
to learn how little light is available indoors, even on
sunny days. Author Dr.
Marie-Annette Brown
says, "Research shows that bright light alone can relieve
many of the symptoms of the Body Blues, including overeating,
carbohydrate cravings, fatigue, and low mood. It can even
help women lose weight. Sunlight happens to be our brightest
and most economical source of bright light. Spending an
extra hour a day outdoors is as effective at relieving the
Body Blues as sitting in front of a $300 artificial light
box."
(2) Exercise - Going for a brisk outdoor walk, 20 minutes a day, five days a week.
The exercise recommended in the LEVITY Program doesn't have to strenous. Dr. Brown states, "The ideal mood-enhancing exercise is moderate-intensity outdoor exercise. More strenuous exercise can be too taxing, creating what researchers call 'tense arousal' instead of 'energetic arousal'. When you exercise outdoors, you get the added benefit of bright natural light, doubling the antidepressant effect."
(3) Vitamins - Taking a specific combination and dosage of 6 vitamins every day.
The mood elevating formula used in the LEVITY Program consists
of three key B vitamins, folic acid, selenium and vitamin
D. Each of these ingredients has been found to relieve some
symptoms of the Body Blues. Together, they create a comprehensive
antidepressant cocktail. Learn more about the Nutrients
