 The LEVITY Program Inside the LEVITY Program
 The Science Behind the LEVITY Program:
The LEVITY Study
The LEVITY study is ground-breaking research just released
in December, 2001 in Women & Health, a peer-reviewed academic
journal. In the study, conducted under the auspices of the
University of Washington, Dr.
Marie-Annette Brown, Jo Robinson and their colleagues tested a program of light,
exercise and vitamins 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.
Even more remarkable, 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 participant said, "Before the study, my mood was about four or five, now it's eight or nine. It's really been quite a change... My overall stress level is down, definitely down. And my attitude! Now I know I can make a change."
