• Increased energy levels

Use HumanCharger® to gain those benefits on a regular basis in the morning once a day within two hours of waking up at the same time each day.
Recommended time is 12 minutes.
Follow the instructions below to prepare your device for use.

When To Use HumanCharger®

Winter Blues
The winter blues is a mild version of Seasonal Affective Disorder caused by lack of ambient light. To alleviate typical symptoms of winter blues, such as irritability, loss of interest in activities you usually find enjoyable, feeling of worthlessness or hopelessness, oversleeping, loss of energy, social withdrawal, decreased physical activity, fatigue, cravings for foods that are high in carbohydrates, and weight gain, use the HumanCharger® as usual on a regular basis in the morning once a day within two hours of waking up at the same time each day.
If your seasonal mood swings are more severe, or you are suffering from depression, or if you are currently on medication for depression, consult your physician and use light therapy only under supervision.

Jet lag recovery

When you travel cross several time zones, you are likely to experience some jet lag. HumanCharger® is perfect for accelerating your recovery from the unpleasant symptoms of jet lag. If your flight is eastward, use HumanCharger® first thing in the morning and early afternoon, four times during the day at 2-hour intervals (for example at 8 am, 10 am, 12 noon, and 2 pm local time). Repeat each day until you feel recovered. For a westward flight, use HumanCharger® from late afternoon to evening, four times a day at 2-hour intervals (for example at 3 pm, 5 pm, 7 pm, and 9 pm local time). Repeat each day until you feel recovered. It is not recommended to take more than four 12 minute HumanCharger® sessions per day.
