Topic Reading-Vol.3763-7/31/2022

Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Napping regularly linked to high blood pressure and stroke, study finds
A short nap for 15 to 20 minutes around noon to 2 pm is a good way to refresh yourself, especially when you’re sleep-deprived. But if you regularly sleep for an hour or even longer in the daytime, your sleep deprivation will remain and could increase the risk of hypertension and stroke, a new study found. It is now known that sleep duration is one of the most essential metrics for good heart and brain health. So, if you constantly feel sleepy during the day, you may not be having enough sleep at night even though that is essential for your health. If that is the case, you may want to review your lifestyle, eating and drinking habits, and night-time activities especially before going to bed, including smartphoning.
Read the article and learn about what daytime drowsiness could mean to your life and health.
