How Does Noise Pollution Actually Cause High Blood Pressure?

from The Wellness Rhythm Show

Emma Sullivan and David Park investigate why noise pollution—from traffic, neighbors, and nighttime sounds at everyday volumes—triggers a physiological stress cascade that can impair your cardiovascular system and blunt the blood pressure dip that should happen during sleep.
