People who do not sleep and wake up at regular times have an increased risk of heart attack and stroke. This study conducted in Britain shows that sleep patterns have a profound impact on heart health, regardless of whether a person gets enough sleep or not.
Researchers studied data from 72,269 people who were between 40 and 79 years of age and had no serious heart problems. The study found that people who had irregular sleep had a higher risk of heart disease than people who slept regularly.
Relationship between sleep and heart disease
Researchers found that people who had irregular sleep had a 26% higher risk of having a heart attack or stroke. At the same time, the risk was 8% higher for those whose sleep patterns were slightly irregular. This research proves that sleep patterns can be an important factor in cardiovascular problems.
CRP protein and inflammation cause heart disease.
Emily McGrath, senior cardiac nurse at the British Heart Foundation, said that poor sleep increases the level of CRP protein in the body, which is a sign of inflammation. Inflammation can increase problems related to the heart and blood vessels. This research also shows that sleep problems can increase the risk of heart and blood pressure related diseases.
