Every Year, in the dark period of autumn, winter and early spring, millions of people start feeling tired and listless. These people may well be affected by the so-called WINTERBLUES, or; as doctors call it, sub-syndronormal SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder). The problems are usually caused by a lack of light. Research has shown that 60% of the population recognised at least one of the symptoms. Amazingly, 15% of us have all the symptoms of Winterblues.

Winterblues affects different people in different ways. Some of the symptoms include:

• feeling tired
• having less energy
• needing more sleep
• feeling listless and gloomy
• concentration problems
• craving for carbohydrates
• gaining weight
• low spirits
