Over the past few years, the topic of sleep has permeated the media landscape like few other topics in science and medicine. This has led to not only a fascination withing the public about the topic, but also a wild west-like race to financially capitalize on sleep products. But which products are better than others? In this episode, we will:

  • discuss the ways in which the media "rank" various sleep products
  • dive into the ways in which these ratings are determined
  • contrast this with the relatively small amount of credible research available for these determinations
  • understand how these awards and certifications are often bought or acquired through means other than a product's merit in the field
  • stress that the only way to know if a product is going to work well for you is to try it

Produced by: Maeve Winter
