Bad sleeping 'doubles heart risk'
Summary
Researchers say both too much and too little sleep is linked to a doubled risk of fatal cardiovascular disease. They found a doubled risk among those who cut their sleeping from seven to five hours a night compared to those who stuck to seven hours a night. But the risk was similar for those who increased to at least eight hours. The researchers took into account other possible factors such age, sex, marital status, employment grade, smoking status and physical activity.

Professor Cappuccio said lack of sleep had been linked to an increased risk of weight gain, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes.
However, he said the link between too much sleep and poor health was less clear, although he suggested that staying in bed for prolonged periods could be a sign of depression, or, in some cases, cancer-related fatigue.
Reactions:
Increased risk of heart disease with increased number of deaths from self-effort and lack of comfort and lack of sleep is good it's around the world. It's often the students and staff for not taking enough rest and sleep well. You must do an awareness campaign to reduce heart disease, which causes the increase in cases of death in the world.
