Episode Details

There is a reason we spend around a third of our lives asleep: We need sleep to survive. This week on Health Wanted, host Laurel Bristow and guest Dayna Johnson, PhD, talk about why we sleep, the importance of sleep quality, and how to make sure you are getting the most out of your body’s time at rest.

In the Q&A, Bristow SSRIs and pregnancy, vitamin C and bleeding gums, myocarditis and COVID, and some good news about vaccines! A question about a possible universal cancer vaccine sets up "Sick of the Week."
