How Being Overweight Causes Sleep Apnea
from: Christian GoodmanSleep Apnea is a medical condition characterized by interrupted breathing patterns during sleep. Someone with this condition normally snores loudly, may stop breathing for 10-20 seconds during sleep, then resumes breathing with a gasp, choke, or loud snort.
This may occur anywhere from 5 to 30 times in an hour, and the reduced amount of oxygen in the blood can be life threatening.
Sleep apnea affects one in about every 25 adults, but 90% of all sleep apnea cases aren't reported.
Most sufferers do not wake up during these episodes of non-breathing, and are not aware of the medical condition, hence it is not being reported.
Often, it is the sufferer's bed partner or roommate who initially notices the signs.
Obesity is known to cause sleep apnea due to the additional fat around the neck that pushes against the airways. What is unknown is that sleep apnea in turn causes obesity. This happens because when the amount of oxygen in the blood decreases, it causes the body to store more fat to replace the decreased energy reserves.
The vicious cycle will continue unless it is treated.
If you have these symptoms - overweight, with dry/sore throat, headaches in the morning, and feeling of tiredness during the day, then you may be suffering from sleep apnea.
Most doctors will advise you to lose weight, claiming that even a 10% reduction in weight will curb sleep apnea and help you sleep better. It's helpful advice, but 10% of your body weight doesn't sound so easy to shed once you do the math.
That's where my Snoring Program comes in.
My Snoring Program doesn't entail any rigorous exercise and weight loss, but has been used by hundreds of my satisfied clients to cure their sleep apnea and get much-needed rest during the night.
By following the easy steps incorporated in my Snoring Program, the body will not go into "panic mode" during sleep. This in turn will increase the energy that you will get from sleep, thus making it easier for you to maintain a healthy body weight. Two birds with one stone.
How about hitting three birds with one stone?
For sleep apnea sufferers, my new Weight Loss Program will tackle the underlying causes of sleep apnea - as well as a host of other problems caused by all that extra cargo.
The exercises in my new Weight Loss Program aren't even workout exercises - in fact, you've probably never heard of exercises like these before.
Check out my Snoring Program and Weight Loss Program for a better sleep and a better life.
