Overestimating Your Sleep Schedule
A recent study indicates that failing to maintain a consistent sleep routine is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes. The researchers analyzed data from over 2,000 adults with an average age of 69 over a period of three years. They found that sleep schedule disruptions of more than two hours weekly increase the risk of coronary artery calcification by 1.4 times and arterial deposits by 1.12 times. Furthermore, an increase of more than 90 minutes beyond normal is linked to an increased risk of atherosclerosis up to 1.43 times. Experts emphasize that regular sleep helps reduce the risk of heart diseases and recommend adopting healthy sleep habits such as setting fixed times for sleeping and waking, reducing exposure to blue light, and engaging in physical activity.
