Snoring Increases Risk of Diabetes and Cardiac Diseases: Study

 StudyA recent study has linked snoring and restless sleep among people as a possible symptom to a metabolic condition. It has further been stated in the report that people suffering from the condition are at the risk of cardiac diseases, strokes and diabetes.

People who happen to snore are also more likely to end up being diagnosed with a metabolic syndrome in contrast to people who do not snore over a period of three years. Apart from that people who snore and happen to experience restlessness during sleep are at an 80% increased risk of suffering from metabolic syndrome.

According to the information available with the American Syndrome of Sleep Medicine, an estimated 24% women and 40% men snore and thus have a greater chance of developing metabolic syndrome. People snoring are advised by healthcare professionals to seek medical help, as snoring could be the symptom of a possible underlying medical condition.

People who happen to snore and are overweight can cure their problem of snoring by losing weight. If the condition continues, a person can try sleeping on their side, as sleeping on the back can resulted in the airways to the lungs being blocked.

The study has appeared in the recent edition of the publication Sleep and could very well unravel the secret behind fit people ending up with diabetes.
