Like to kick back for an afternoon siesta (休息)?Good news : A new study shows that regular napping may cut your risk of dying of a heart attack of other heart problems.
Researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and the University of Athens Medical School in Greece, tracked 23, 681 apparently healthy men and women, aged from 20 to 86, for more than six years. They found those who look afternoon siestas of 30 minutes or more at least three times a week had a 37 percent lower risk of dying from heart disease than those who did not.
Even more impressive :researchers found that working men who took regular or occasional naps had a 64 percent lower risk of death from heart attacks or other heart-related ills than their non-napping compeers. And working women ?”The apparent effect was evident mainly among working men .” says lead study author Dimitrios Trichopculos.“ There were not enough coronary (冠心病) deaths among the working women (only six ) in this group to allow sound inference.”( Of course, some might consider that a positive thing.)
Trichopoulos , a
cancer prevention and epidemiology (流行病学) professor at HSPH, says researchers decided to look into this issue, because coronary death tends to be low in populations in which the frequency of siestas tends to be high .Trichopoulos says that if further studies net similar results. “then lifestyle changes that would allow afternoon napping might to be considered.” Of course ,that’s easier said than done ,especially in the United States, where employers are not exactly known to encourage workers to nap. “I am fully aware that the lifestyle in the US does not leave much room for changes of this type,” he says.
