In this conversation, Richard Syrett (Sauga 960 AM) speaks with Pam Killeen about the alarming trend of overdiagnosis in healthcare, particularly in relation to prostate cancer. She highlights the economic motivations behind medical screenings and treatments, referencing Alan Cassels’ work on the subject. Killeen also touches on the potential cognitive effects of prostate cancer treatments, particularly in the context of President Biden’s recent diagnosis. The conversation shifts to the vital role of nutrition, restorative sleep, and regular sunlight exposure in maintaining long-term health and preventing chronic disease. Pam also emphasizes the often-overlooked importance of natural darkness in the evening and limiting artificial light at night to support circadian rhythm and overall well-being—key elements in a truly holistic approach to healthcare reform.
