New research reveals that insufficient #sleep duration and poor sleep quality are each linked to increased risk of high blood pressure, called #hypertension the so-called silent killer behind heart attacks and strokes.
It's yet another indication that poor sleep causes poor health which causes poorer sleep, and so on, in a vicious downward #health spiral.
