This may surprise you but according to a study in the journal Heart a daily nighttime soak in the tub might even lower one's stroke risk. They found that a warm bath every day encourages circulation and blood vessel flexibility to decrease stroke risk by up to 46%. Said bath before bed is a good idea as it triggers a drop in body temperature afterward that helps one sleep better. That's good idea as research in the Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases suggests that ample sleep is a safeguard against stress and inflammation to further reduce one's stroke risk. You may want to find time for that nighttime soak.
