PROFESSIONALS SAY
WE SHOULD BE ON
THE LOOK OUT FOR
MORE THAN
OVERSLEEPING.
A RECENT STUDY
SHOWED A NEARLY 25
PERCENT INCREASE IN
HEART ATTACKS ON
THE FIRST MONDAY
AFTER THE TIME
CHANGE.
MOST OF THOSE
CASES ARE FROM
PEOPLE ALREADY AT
RISK... LIKE SMOKERS.
BUT, HEALTH
EXPERTS SAY MORE
STRESS HORMONES
ARE RELEASED WHEN
WE LOSE AN HOUR OF
SLEEP.

"When you wake up on
Saturday and Sunday,
and especially on
Monday, get up and go
out. Don't just stay
indoors so get exposed
to the sunlight so that
your body and mind can
reset your circadian
rhythm."
