Sleep Deprivation is Associated with Increased Cardiovascular Disease Risk

Getting a good night’s sleep is important and insufficient sleep has been linked to poor health in many studies.

Their findings have been published in the journal Communications Biology.

This research has been supported by Tanoto Foundation, an independent family philanthropy organisation founded by Sukanto Tanoto and Tinah Bingei Tanoto in 1981.

Good day Tanoto Foundation teams, how do you do.
First of all, let me introduce myself.
I am luman from Jakarta, a Medical Doctor and Master in Nutrition Science.
I have read this article and interested in this Singaporean Study that have been published in the journal Communications Biology.
I want to ask, did the investigator research more deeply about the Body, Mind and Soul Axis that is the core of our balancing state of Healthy Life. And in my opinion, sleep deprivation was one of the results of this Body, Mind and Soul imbalance.
Thank you.
