World Stroke Day Link Between Poor Sleep, Irregular Bedtimes And Strokes (Credits: AI)
\n\nAn occasional late night may not seem like much to worry about. Maybe you stayed up scrolling through your phone watching the reels or were finishing up a work assignment past midnight. Or perhaps it was Friday night and you spent the weekend getting drinks with your friends, after all, having fun is a part of life too. But when sleepless nights and irregular bedtimes become routine, the consequences may extend well beyond dark circles, irritability and daytime fatigue.
\n\nSleep is essential for the brain and cardiovascular system to function properly. With World Stroke Day being observed on October 29, the relationship between sleep and brain health deserves closer attention. Can sleeping too little or going to bed at different times increase your chances of a stroke? And how much should you worry about your nightly routine?
\n\nAccording to Dr. Arjun Shah, Consultant Neurologist at Saifee Hospital, Dr. Bhirud, Neurologist and Neuro-Interventionalist at Ruby Hall Clinic, and Dr. Jagdish Chattnalli, Senior Minimally Invasive Brain and Spine Surgeon at Bengaluru West Clinics, HCG Hospitals Bengaluru, sleep health is an important part of the broader conversation around stroke prevention.
