What is sleep apnea? Sleep apnea is a potentially life threatening sleeping disorder that can be very hard to catch if you always sleep alone. Apnea, literally translated, means without breath. When you sleep & snore, you have the disorder when your breathing stops for ten or more seconds in between snores. Usually, the lapse in breathing is directly followed by an audible gasp for air, your body’s way of getting the oxygen it so desperately needs. So… Sleep apnea causes a blood oxygen desaturation of three to four percent or more. And so… So far so good. While the percentage may not seem like much, it can have disastrous effects on your overall health.
A quick internet search of what’s sleep apnea will bring back over 25,000 responses. Once you sift through all of the garbage sites, you will find out that there’re many symptoms of the sleeping disorder. The scary fact is that many of the symptoms, such as depression, irritability & changes in behavior can be attributed to a ton of other non sleep apnea related conditions. In most cases, these symptoms will be misconstrued & misdiagnosed as a mental condition. As a result, the treatments will only relieve the symptoms & leave the actual disorder untouched & not addressed. If left untreated, sleep apnea can cause major damage . . . → Read More: What is Sleep Apnea & Why is it So Dangerous?
