Nocturnal Blood Pressure Dipping
Blood pressure dipping is the healthy nighttime BP fall during sleep—supported by length, quality sleep and harmed by apnea, alcohol, and stress.
Blood pressure dipping is the normal nighttime drop in blood pressure during sleep—blunted dipping links to cardiovascular risk and poor sleep quality. Short sleep, apnea, late alcohol, and high evening stress flatten the dip.
Track with clinical cuffs when advised; wellness users focus on sleep length and alcohol timing.
