Snoring

According to some studies, 24% of men and 18% of women suffer from snoring. Also, 60% of men and 40% of women over the age of 60 snore (female snoring increases after menopause). Some Stanford University sleep researchers found that 75-80% of the patients they see, that are concerned with snoring, are diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea. A CAA official stated that as many as 50,000 auto accidents happen in Canada as a result of sleepy drivers; many of which suffer from obstructive sleep apnea.

Why Sleep Is So Important to Your Everyday Life

A good night’s sleep is incredibly important for your health; it’s just as important as eating healthy and exercising! Poor sleep can make you overweight and put you at greater risk of heart disease and stroke, as well cause depression. On the other hand, good sleepers tend to eat fewer calories, have enhanced concentration, and are more productive in their daily lives.
