Sleep foundation: reports "Sleep is essential for a healthy heart. People who don't sleep enough are at higher risk for cardiovascular disease—regardless of age, weight, smoking and exercise habits. ... Over time, this can lead to higher blood pressure during the day and a greater chance of cardiovascular problems." Seek to increase number of hours of sleep during the weekdays. Best regards for good health.
