What is Sleep Apnea?
A serious disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep.
During an episode, the airway becomes blocked, limiting oxygen. These disruptions can occur 5 to 100+ times per hour.
Untreated complications include:
- High blood pressure & heart disease
- Type 2 diabetes
- Daytime fatigue & cognitive impairment
- Metabolic syndrome
Types of Sleep Apnea
Understanding the three main categories.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Throat muscles relax and block the airway. The most common form.
Central Sleep Apnea (CSA)
The brain fails to send proper signals to breathing muscles.
Mixed Sleep Apnea
A combination of both obstructive and central sleep apnea.

Loud Snoring
