What Makes A Light Full Spectrum?
In order to achieve natural balanced sunlight INDOORS, your light bulbs must contain a full spectrum of color (all the colors of the rainbow). Full spectrum lighting must contain infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths. (The hazards of UV have been vastly exaggerated — moderate levels of UV are not only safe, but also essential for good health.) Way Healthier full spectrum light bulbs contain all these essential ingredients (full color spectrum, IR and UV) to help you receive the complete balanced complement of natural light. There is no such thing as an incandescent full spectrum light bulb. Neodymium bulbs touted as “full spectrum” lights will not give you the health benefits of true full spectrum. Not all fluorescent bulbs are the same .You need to be aware of to really understand why Way Healthier bulbs are TRUE full spectrum lights … and why many bulbs on the market are not. Two terms you should understand are Correlated Color Temperature (CCT) and Color Retention Index
