Murashko spoke about the dangers of lack of sleep
Healthy sleep is important for the normal functioning of the body and good productivity during the day.
In case of lack of sleep, a person's condition can significantly worsen.
The risk of early death increases by 30% if a person sleeps less than 6 hours a day. RIA Novosti reports details with reference to Russian Health Minister Mikhail Murashko.
It is noted that citizens who spend less than 5 hours sleeping are more prone to gaining excess weight than people who sleep a normal number of hours.
According to Murashko, sleeping less than 6 hours a day increases the likelihood of developing heart and vascular problems by 48%.
He added that not only lack of sleep but also prolonged stress can lead to cardiovascular diseases. It increases the risk of developing these diseases by 40-60%.
