The Comfort of Blue
By using BLUEWAVE® light-emitting diodes (LEDs), the goLITE Pro delivers safe and effective wave-
lengths of light, while eliminating harmful UV and the eyestrain that can be associated with other bright
light treatments.
Safe and Effective
According to independent ocular safety testing, BLUEWAVE light is safe when following the recom-
mended usage guidelines. BLUEWAVE Technology in your goLITE passes ICNRIP/ACGIH thresh-
old value limits at only 15% (light energy exceeding 100% is considered potentially hazardous). The
effectiveness of the type of light in BLUEWAVE has been researched and advocated by leading medical
universities. For more information, visit www.ApolloHealth.com.

Understanding Light, Health, and Circadian Rhythms
The human body uses light cues, such as those provided by the sun, to time certain internal functions.
Properly timed rhythms regulate mood, sleep, energy, appetite, and digestion. These daily internal cycles,
called circadian rhythms, sometimes fall out of sync, resulting in an unregulated body clock.
Modern Living Has Altered Our Circadian Rhythms
Unfortunately, modern living has dramatically altered nature’s cues. A modern day no longer starts at the
crack of dawn and ends at 8:00 p.m. Workdays are getting longer and many people face shift work sched-
ules. Additionally, most everyone’s social gatherings and personal activities extend well into the night.
These factors have diminished the body’s natural ability to regulate the body clock.
Circadian Rhythm Imbalance
When our circadian rhythm becomes imbalanced, the body produces the wrong hormones, chemicals,
and neurotransmitters at the wrong time of the day. The results range from feelings of sadness to sleep-
lessness to loss of appetite.
Effects of an Imbalance in Circadian Rhythm
Many people suffer from a loss of energy and mood that can last for a short period of time to more than a
couple of weeks. For many, these feelings come on stronger in the winter and in darker climates.
Circadian Rhythms
5
An Imbalance in Circadian Rhythm Contributes to the Following:
• Winter blues • Lack of energy (especially in the winter)
• Feelings of sadness • Sleeplessness
• Jet lag • Mood swings
• Lack of concentration • Irritability
• Loss of appetite
Restored Balance with BLUEWAVE Technology
Researchers have discovered that our circadian rhythms respond best to a specific bandwidth of blue light
found in natural sunlight. Apollo Health has isolated this bandwidth in a new technology called BLUE-
WAVE. BLUEWAVE Technology helps shift circadian rhythms back to their normal pattern by deliver-
ing this specifically-engineered light that stimulates the production of key substances triggered by the
brain. BLUEWAVE naturally affects the body by shifting the body clock to its correct timing, causing the
proper signals to be produced at the right time of day.
For nearly 20 years, Apollo Health’s Body Clock System™ has helped hundreds of thousands of people
take control of their body clocks. The goLITE is an important part of this system. For more information

Plugging In Your goLITE
Your goLITE comes with a 9V AC/DC adapter with US-style prongs. Your adapter can operate on AC
power ranging from 100–240 volts for usage worldwide. A prong adaptor may be required to connect
your adapter in countries that use different prong styles. These are readily available at electronics and
travel goods retailers.
Use the enclosed adapter only, or a replacement adaptor specified by Apollo Health for use with the
goLITE. For safety and proper operation of your goLITE, never use an unapproved adapter.
Battery power
Your goLITE P1 can be powered by an optional external battery pack. The battery pack will allow
2–3 treatment sessions per charge and fits conveniently in your goLITE carrying case. Log on to
www.ApolloHealth.com for more information or to place an order.
Positioning Your goLITE
Because your body’s response is through peripheral stimulation, use the goLITE at a slight angle to your
face (see diagram 1) and do not look directly into the light.
• For best results, place the goLITE approximately 20–30 inches from your eyes. Allow the light to
bathe your face.
• You can read, eat, work at the computer, watch TV, put on makeup, or exercise while using
your goLITE.
Getting Started
8
• Use your goLITE in a well-lit room to minimize eyestrain.
• For best results, place the goLITE near you at eye level so it shines directly into
your eyes.
• The proper response to light therapy occurs through the retina of the eyes, not
through the skin. However, you do not need to stare at the light. If you are in
front of the goLITE and position it close enough, only an occasional glance is
needed achieve the maximum benefits.
Your Eyes Should Be Open for Optimal Results
The hormonal response works through the eyes, not the skin. This is not a tanning light. In fact, Apollo’s
BLUEWAVE Technology creates specific wavelengths that produce a circadian response while eliminating
UV hazards and minimizing eyestrain.
