In the words of the sleep researcher Mathew Walker from the University of Berkeley in California... "The shorter your sleep the shorter your life." Thats quite the statement! Whats astonishing is that this seemingly outrageous claim, has some solid science to back it up. Chronic sleep loss has been associated to every chronic disease. From diabetes, to high blood pressure, to even some cancers. This is terrifying but enlightening at the same moment. What if you had control on the levers of disease? Sleep seems to play a vital role in disease development and progression. An easy, inexpensive tool to lower your disease risk. Not a bad deal is it? #sleep #disease #diabetes #cancer #functionalmedicine #integrativemedicine #reduceyourrisk #health #sleeploss #epidemic #instadaily #instagram #instagramer #healthcoach https://www.instagram.com/p/CHVq8bGhaEc/?igshid=1kq93l4cmg5gf
