I’m a sleep medicine doctor and I ran into a sleep researcher out in the wild! We had the best discussion. We’re so niche #sleeppeeps

As I interview for sleep medicine jobs, I’ve been asked about my specific interest and it’s sleep in women which is 50% of people! Iron deficiency RLS, OSA in pregnancy, perimenopausal hot flash induced insomnia, and post menopausal OSA to name a few #sleepdoctor #sleepinwomen #womenshealth

Tweet from aaolomi “Ali A Olomi @aaolomi Follow a healthy society doesn't let people die because they can't afford their insulin” QT of tweet from josheakle “Healthy societies don't lionize vigilante killers.”

The people who invented insulin sold their patent for $1 because they wanted it to be available to people. The lead researcher famously said, “Insulin does not belong to me, it belongs to the world.”

Pharmaceutical companies ramped up the price anyway, to line their pockets.

As a night owl who’s also a sleep med doc, my sleep is better regulated in the winter even though I do miss the summer sun

Sleep experts advocate for permanent standard time ahead of fall time change Provided by GlobeNewswire Oct 17, 2024 1:50pm Restoring permanent standard time would keep clock time closely aligned with the position of the sun. This alignment would support the human circadian rhythm, the internal body clock that regulates the timing of alertness, sleepiness, and other biological functions.

“Permanent Standard Time keeps clocks aligned with the sun. Alignment supports circadian rhythms, the internal clock that regulates alertness, sleepiness, and other functions.” #DitchDST and restore permanent Standard Time!

Is sleep hygiene enough? For chronic insomnia, no. But a lot of doctors aren’t taught about CBT-I or bed-sleep association called stimulus control. What do you tell your patients? #insomnia #sleeptips #sleepdoctor

CBC Clocks turn back in Ontario on Sunday, as debate over time continues Sunlight is key as it resets our biological clocks, says York U biology professor Naama Weingarten · CBC News · Posted: Nov 02, 2024 2:00 AM MST | Last Updated: November 2 Ontarians will see their clocks turn back by an hour this Sunday, as they switch back to standard time until the spring — a change that seems to spark the same debate every November. The annual time switch has been questioned for years now, with many wanting to stick with daylight or standard time year-round to spare themselves the disruption…

“Permanent Standard Time is more consistent with the body’s biological clock.” Permanent DST would force one-hour earlier waking on dark, cold winter mornings. #DitchDST #SaveStandardTime #NaturalTime
