Sleep apnea is more than just loud snoring; it’s a serious sleep disorder where breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. If left untreated, sleep apnea can lead to severe health complications that affect your quality of life, longevity, and mental well-being.
What is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea occurs when the muscles at the back of your throat fail to keep the airway open, resulting in:
- Interrupted breathing
- Frequent nighttime awakenings
- Poor oxygen supply to the brain and body
There are three main types:
- Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) – Most common; caused by throat muscle relaxation.
- Central Sleep Apnea – The Brain doesn’t send proper signals to the breathing muscles.
- Mixed Sleep Apnea Syndrome – A mix of both OSA and central apnea.
Risks of Untreated Sleep Apnea
Ignoring sleep apnea can be dangerous, even life-threatening. Here’s why:
Cardiovascular Problems
- High blood pressure
- HEART FAILURE
- Irregular heartbeat (arrhythmia)
- Increased risk of heart attacks and stroke
Cognitive Decline
- Poor memory, concentration issues
- Daytime drowsiness, slow reaction time (increasing accident risk)
Metabolic & Hormonal Imbalance
- Increased insulin resistance (higher diabetes risk)
- Hormonal disruptions leading to weight gain
Mental Health Effects
- Depression, anxiety, and mood swings
- Irritability and emotional instability
Increased Mortality
Studies show that moderate to severe untreated sleep apnea can double the risk of death due to cardiac and systemic complications.
Common Symptoms to Watch For
- Loud, chronic snoring
- Gasping or choking during sleep
- Morning headaches or dry mouth
- Excessive daytime fatigue
- Mood changes or brain fog
- Trouble focusing or memory lapses
If you or your partner notice any of these signs, it’s crucial to get evaluated.
