It's also worth noting that patients who slept five hours or less had a host of additional health problems.
For example, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and so on.
If a person not only had sleep problems but also diabetes, the risk of a heart attack increased by 2 times.
Experts noted that if there are problems with falling asleep, the risk of a heart attack increased by 13 percent compared to those who had no complaints.
