Sleep Disorders

We talk about a good sleep that is important to everybody’s health and productivity as food. If you dint get at least seven hours of sleep every night, you’re not promoting optimal health and well-being.

The fact is sleep disorders are associated with numerous, serious medical illnesses, such as:

High blood pressure
Heart attack
Heart failure
Stroke
Obesity
Psychiatric problems, including depression and other mood disorders
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD)
Mental impairment
Fetal and childhood growth retardation
Injury from accidents
Disruption of bed partner’s sleep quality
Poor quality of life

Studies show an increased mortality risk for those reporting less than either six or seven hours per night. Chronic snoring, for example, is associated with an increased incidence of heart and brain-related diseases. It is present in about 45% of the U.S. population; up to half of those have sleep apnea.

The prevalence of sleep apnea is on par with diabetes and asthma. More than 20 million Americans — 24% of adult men and 9% of adult women — are estimated to have some degree of obstructive sleep apnea. Only a fraction have been diagnosed and treated.
Sleep apnea is a primary risk factor for high blood pressure; as many as 40% of those people are undiagnosed and untreated for high blood pressure. Effective treatment of sleep apnea in patients with high blood pressure leads to a substantial reduction in stroke risk.
Patients with moderate to severe sleep apnea perform as poorly as drunk drivers and have up to a 15-fold increased risk of motor vehicle accidents.

Physicians and health care experts have been telling us for years about the benefits of quality sleep not only for a healthy mind and body but for hair as well.
