How Being Overweight Causes Snoring And Sleep Apnea

Sleep Apnea is a medical condition characterized by interrupted breathing patterns during sleep. A sufferer of sleep apnea, who most likely snores very loudly, may stop breathing for 10-20 seconds while asleep, then resumes breathing with a gasp, choke, or loud snort. This may happen anywhere from five to 30 times an hour, and the decreased 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. This is because the sufferer often does not wake up during these episodes of non-breathing, so they often aren’t aware of the medical condition. It’s often the sufferer’s bed partner or roommate who initially notices the symptoms.

It’s common knowledge that obesity is a cause of sleep apnea (the additional fat around the neck pushes against the airways). What isn’t as well-known is the fact that sleep apnea also causes obesity in return – the decreased amounts of oxygen in the blood triggers a “panic mode” in the body, causing it to store more fat to compensate for decreased energy reserves.

It’s a vicious cycle that doesn’t end until remedied.

If you’re overweight, suffer from sore/dry throats and headaches in the morning, and generally feel tired during the day, then there’s a good chance that you suffer 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 sticking to the easy steps listed in my Snoring Program, the body won’t go into the aforementioned “panic mode” during sleep, and the increased energy you’ll get from sleep will make it easier for you to maintain a healthy body weight. Two birds with one stone.

But wouldn’t it be even better to hit three birds with one stone?

As my first treat for 2008, I’m unveiling my new Weight Loss Program this month. My new Weight Loss Program involves simple exercises that will effectively reduce your weight to ideal levels. 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.

Excited? I know I am. I’ll divulge more about my new Weight Loss Program in the days to come, so please stay tuned.

Sweet Dreams,

Christian Goodman
