We spend about one third of our life asleep, yet not all of us wake up refreshed and recharged the next morning. Insomnia is common and medications to help us sleep are extremely popular, but are they effective and are they safe? To discuss these issues regarding sleep, we are pleased to have as our guest today, Dr. Michael Silber, a neurologist and sleep expert. Dr. Silber works in the Center for Sleep Medicine at Mayo Clinic, Rochester.
