High Blood Pressure Connected to This Weird Evening Habit

Many people have no idea that they have high blood pressure. If they don’t have angina or heart attack first, or they don’t have it measured, they remain oblivious of this potentially deadly threat.

A new study from Dr. Nobuo Sasaki and colleagues at the Hiroshima University suggests that a weird habit may indicate that you have high blood pressure.

The researchers examined 2,400 adults to find out whether high blood pressure influenced bedtime and sleep quality.

Peculiarly, they found that men, but not women, with high blood pressure tend to fall asleep earlier than those with normal blood pressure.

In their study, hypertensive men went to bed on the average 18 minutes earlier than their healthy peers, 11:10 PM versus 11:28 PM.

In addition, they discovered that hypertensive men slept worse than those with normal blood pressure did, to the extent that they scored with insomniacs as poor sleepers.

The researchers did not suggest that an early bedtime caused high blood pressure, but merely suggested that the tendency to fall asleep early can indicate that you already have high blood pressure. If this is the case, you may want to get yourself tested.

The academics did not propose a reason why this happens. In fact, their conclusion probably contradicted what they expected to find when they launched the study.

Most likely this happens because those with high blood pressure never get the “low-blood-pressure-rest” in the middle of the night that healthy people do. Therefore, your body is under stress 24/7.
