        • Red light therapy: All the rage, or waste of money?!

          Red light therapy (RLT) uses low-level wavelengths of light to influence biological processes — a concept known as photobiomodulation. It was originally used in dermatology for early skin cancer treatment, but is now all the rage for a number of purported health benefits.

        • Why are more and more young women freezing their eggs?

          Egg freezing (oocyte preservation) was once a medical procedure for patients facing infertility due to illness or surgery.

          In 2012, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) declared it “non-experimental,” making elective or social egg freezing more mainstream.

          Now widely used by Canadians seeking to delay parenthood for personal, career, or relationship reasons.

          Guest: Dr. Prati Sharma, American Board Certified Reproductive Endocrinologist

        • Why do orcas share their prey with humans?

          Researchers from Canada, New Zealand, and Mexico have documented 34 cases over the past 20 years where wild orcas appeared to offer freshly caught prey to humans.

          These encounters involved orcas approaching swimmers, boaters, or people on shore and dropping prey within about a body-length of them.

          In 97% of the cases, the orcas paused after making the offering, appearing to wait for a human response before either retrieving the prey or leaving it.

          Guest: Jared Towers, executive director of the research group Bay Cetology in Alert Bay
