Why does sleeping more than eight or seven hours increase the odds for a stroke?

There’s also research saying that napping more than one hour increases risks of various problems like heart disease and obesity, and could also lead to early deaths. But, like everyone has said about the original question, it’s not something you should take at face value.
A healthy person who eats well, gets physical exercise most days, and doesn’t smoke or drink *but* does take a few 1 hour naps throughout the month is going to be a different case than someone who eats primarily carb heavy foods filled with sugar, doesn’t exercise often, and does smoke or drink who also takes multiple 1 hour naps.
One is napping because their body needs to rest for a bit after exertion, the other is napping because their body isn’t functioning well enough to keep energy levels up throughout the day.
