0 Are You a Night Owl?

For those of you overachievers and night owls who like to stay up late, you are, without even knowing it, creating a major health risk. Many people work hard, eat lean diets, and exercise; yet, most of us forget to allow our bodies enough rest, which may well counteract that challenge of staying fully healthy. Aside from the major known effects of sleep loss such as difficulty of appetite control, impaired cognitive ability and increased mood swings, a recent study reveals that there is a link between deprived sleep and increased risk of stroke. Find out more about this study and then tell us about your sleep patterns on Facebook. Getting the care and information you need, when you need it, isn't too much to ask. Your voice matters!
