The Sleep Fix with Diane Macedo

Omnipresent screens and always-on work schedules are playing havoc with our sleep cycles, creating a population that is getting less shut-eye, and experiencing more sleep disruptions, than ever before. That’s a problem because research suggests that sleep is integral to our cognitive, physical and mental health, with poor sleep increasing risk for everything from high blood pressure to diabetes and depression. Former insomniac and ABC News anchor Diane Macedo’s new book, The Sleep Fix, includes practical, proven and surprising solutions for insomnia, snoring, shift work and more. In episode 97, Macedo joins Medcan’s clinical director of travel medicine Dr. Aisha Khatib as they explore how sleep really works, and how to identify exactly what is keeping you up at night.
