Researchers found that sleep-deprived individuals who catch up on sleep during weekends can reduce their heart disease risk by up to 20%, highlighting the importance of compensatory sleep.
Yanjun Song noted, 'Sufficient compensatory sleep is linked to a lower risk of heart disease.' This is especially true for those with inadequate sleep during the weekdays.
The study analyzed nearly 91,000 people and determined that compensatory sleep could reduce heart disease risk by 19%, showing significant health benefits for weekend sleepers.
Zechen Liu emphasized the relevance of the findings, stating, 'Those who have the most 'catch-up' sleep at weekends have significantly lower rates of heart disease compared to those with the least.'
