Going to bed between 10 and 11pm every night cuts your risk of heart disease, study claims

Going to bed between 10 and 11pm every night cuts your risk of heart disease, study claims Going to bed during the ‘golden hour’ between 10pm and 11pm slashes the risk of developing heart disease, according to a major study.

Scientists found there is a link between bedtimes and heart attacks and stroke, particularly in women, with those who stay up late more at risk.

The study by the University of Exeter said going to bed after midnight may damage the heart as people are less likely to see morning light, disrupting the natural body clock. The Daily Mail
