Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and depression are commonly linked to inadequate levels of Seratonin. While brainwave entrainment has been shown to increase levels of Seratonin, that is not the primary purpose of the SADReducer audio.

J.B. Henriques, R.J. Davidson and others have found a very distinct brainwave pattern associated with depression: too much activity in the right (emotional) hemisphere and too little activity in the left (logical) hemisphere, leading to irrational, overly emotional reactions to otherwise trivial situations. Correcting this hemispheric imbalance is simple and the benefits are rapid. Often the correction of this brainwave 'asymmetry' is enough ot bring Serotonin levels back to where they should be. So, in that sense, the root cause of depression could be said to be this hemispheric asymmetry and a general lack of Beta brainwave activity (under-arounsal), though the original cause of the depression could be deeper still (genetic makeup, childhood experiences, etc.)

Dr. Siegried Othmer noted that depressed individuals tend to exhibit lower brainwave amplitudes overall, and particularly in the beta range. In other words, depressed individuals exist largely int he Alpha and Theta brainwave patterns, resulting in persistent fatigue or feeling like a 'sleep walker'.

Dr. Norman Shealy, Dr. Ray Smith, Saul Rosenthaul, Normal Wulfsohn, Sual Liss and many other researchers have found that depression can be reduced with brainwave stimulation. In a study on Seasonal Affective Disorder, conducted by Kathy Berg and David Siever, 84% of the subjects became clinically non-depressed after treatment, and 100% of those treated experienced a significant reduction in depression. Results also showed decreases in anxiety and over-eating while energy and motivation levels increased. Twelve of the participants actually lost weight (average of 9.5 pounds) during the trial.
