Description:

Are you getting enough sleep?  This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute.  In case you needed another reason to get more sleep, a new study has linked circulation problems with lack of sleep.  In fact, only getting 6 hours of sleep a night, instead of the recommended 7 to 8, can increase your chances of developing plaque in your arteries by 27%.  University of Colorado Boulder has located the biological mechanism that occurs during sleep that prevents plaque buildup. The participants of the study that slept less than 7 hours a night had fewer microRNAs than those that slept 7 to 8 hours.  These types of RNAs are responsible for suppressing the expression of proinflammatory proteins.  Make sure that you are getting the recommended 7 to 8 hours of sleep a night, your heart health depends on it.  This Stay Young Medical Minute is brought to you by Executive Medicine of Texas, a leader in preventative and proactive medicine.
