Spanish Sleep Society It has long been recognized that insomnia is the most common sleep disorder, and it is more frequent among women. We know that rest is essential for our health, to the point that sleeping poorly can cause major disorders, among which we are going to focus on our cardiovascular health, and how a good rest considerably improves our quality of life.
Healthy lifestyles: the importance of rest
A modern healthy lifestyle adapted to today’s lifestyle should be based on three pillars: nutrition, physical activity and rest.
To substantially prevent disturbed and interrupted sleep, the
heart foundation recommends taking hygienic and dietary measures:
– Follow a regular routine in your daily activities. Especially regarding your usual bedtime.
– Exercise, but avoid doing it close to bedtime.
– Avoid foods and drinks that contain a lot of sugar and/or caffeine.
– Avoid alcohol before bed.
– Avoid copious dinners.
The rest and the health of our heart
Specialists from all over the world, such as
Chiron Health, confirm “the direct impact of our sleep habits on the health of our heart.” As they explain in their CardioBlog, “sleeping less than 7 hours a night is associated with a higher probability of developing heart problems.” the
European Association for Preventive Cardiology confirms in several studies that people who lead a healthy lifestyle and sleep a minimum of 7 hours a night reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease by up to 65%.
