Ain't life funny?
Yeah... people called me a slacker for not really waking up early to get a jump start on the day...
Well, news for you, genius!
Sure, generations have praised the wisdom of getting up early in the morning, but a new study says that early-risers are actually at a much higher risk of developing heart problems.
"Rising early to go to work or exercise might not be beneficial to health, but rather a risk for vascular diseases," said an abstract of the study.
The study, covering 3,017 healthy adults aged between 23 through 90, found that early risers had a greater risk of heart conditions including hypertension and of having strokes.
So yeah... leave my sleeping patterns alone, although insomnia's robbed me of much, lately...
And, a separate study released in June by researchers at the University of Pennsylvania found that chronic sleep deprivation adds stress to the heart, putting a person at greater risk of cardiovascular disease and death.
Woot.... go me! Death all around!
