3 EATING DISORDERS + LIGHT SAD: Patients with ED are prone for depression and/or anxiety, but it is not a symptom of ED to be seasonally affected. Nigh-shift: Evidence is growing, that circadian lighting can play a signifi- cant role in hospitals, for both patients and the 24-hour staff. Bright Light Therapy (BLT): Tendency towards bright light in the morning as a tool for phase shifting, depression, SAD and dementia. It resets the biological clock and prepares the mind and body for a new 24h cycle. Circadian Light (CL): Positive effects on sleep, resetting CR, body tem- perature rhythms and treatment of illnesses such as dementia and SAD. Associations between light in treatment and convergence in ED symp- toms is still lacking evidence. Chrono-nutrition: the mammalian circadian system is reportedly entrained by food signals (Tahara and Shibata, 2013) and this should be taken into consideration when working with ED patients, as they have a very strict food intake schedule. Vitamin D: In ED, many long-term patients lack bone development and organs because of low nutrition levels. D3 benefits from sun and food, including binding calcium to the bones, energy and sleep.
