❤️ Poor sleep silently harms heart health

Even with a healthy lifestyle, poor sleep poses a serious hidden risk to the heart. Dr. Anshul Kumar Jain from CK Birla Hospital, Delhi, explained that bad sleep prevents blood pressure from naturally dipping overnight.

⛽ Iran sanctions stress global energy trade

Iran sanctions and Hormuz shipping risks are tightening global fuel supply, causing refined fuel shortages. This situation affects markets worldwide as WTI and Brent oil test key levels, while US natural gas supply remains ample. Chinese imports of Iranian crude dropped to 534,000 bpd this month from 823,000 bpd last month.
