People who take partial or long naps are at increased risk of developingfatty liver disease, a new study warns.
Studies show that people who nap for more than 30 minutes during the day, go to bed late, snorer, and It was found to be strongly associated with an increased risk of developing the disease..
Scientists have found that people who sleep less at night and try to compensate with naps during the day have a higher risk of developing chronic diseases.

It has also been found that side effects are exacerbated by poor sleep quality in obese and 'couch potatoes'.
Fortunately, with improved sleep habits, researchers also found that men's risks were also significantly improved. We found that a modest improvement in the risk of fatty liver disease was associated with a 29% reduction in the risk of fatty liver disease," said Yan Liu, Ph.D., study author at Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China.
"Our study provides evidence that even modest improvements in sleep quality are sufficient to reduce the risk of fatty liver disease." 46} "Given that the majority of subjects who suffer from poor sleep quality are underdiagnosed and undertreated, our study warrants further research in this area and the use of drugs to improve sleep quality.
The liver has its own clock, and damage can disrupt that clock. I have.
Lack of sleep has been found by scientists to alter liver metabolism and fat content.
