Obstructive sleep apnea can substantially increase the risk of heart diseases such as strokes. According to a research, 1/5 adults undergo mild sleep apnea at least, and it can affect males more than females.
Obstructive sleep apnea is usually, but not always, linked to obesity. So if an individual is suffering from this sleep disorder, then he or she could be at double risk of cardiac diseases.
So maybe your sleep is what causes heart diseases and other problems in your body. Even if you are not having this sleeping disorder, try as much as you can to maintain a healthy sleeping schedule for your heart’s sake.
