Does Insomnia cause Alzheimer and dementia?

Many people, especially those under 20, suffer from lack of sleep and its disturbances, which seriously threaten their health.

Lack of sleep

Many people who suffer from sleep deprivation do not know it can be significantly linked to the development of Alzheimer, dementia, and a number of health problems at an advanced age. Doctors say this could increase the risk of a heart attack as well.

Researchers found out that people who usually sleep less than 6 hours per night are twice as likely to have a heart attack as those who sleep 6 to 8 hours.

In addition, having trouble sleeping can raise blood pressure.
