Do you feel tired during the day? Do you wake up tired already, and become more tired as you go about your daily tasks, even after a full night's sleep? Do you often hear people close to you complain about your snoring? You may already be suffering from sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is a condition in which you actually stop breathing for a few seconds, generally about 10 seconds at a time. You may not even be aware of it since this can occur throughout the night. Actually, people have only been diagnosed with sleep apnea only after someone else notices that they have stopped breathing during sleep. Clinically, a diagnosis is made using a polysomnogram, an overnight sleep test, where your breathing is closely observed while you sleep.

The cause of the disorder is how sleep apnea is categorized. When something is obstructing the flow of air, it is called obstructive sleep apnea. This is the most common. If you are suffering from upper respiratory infection, it is possible to experience a mild form of sleep apnea. Your airflow becomes blocked by tissues in the throat when they swell. But when obstructive sleep apnea becomes frequent, you need to have medical treatment for it because more serious conditions may happen, such as congestive heart failure.

The second, less common but more serious form is central apnea. In this type of sleep apnea the area of the brain that controls respirations is out of balance. The body's level of carbon dioxide in the blood rises, and the feedback mechanism that usually keeps it in check doesn't react fast enough for you to keep breathing regularly. Following the apneic episode, you may breathe rapidly for several seconds or minutes; this is the body's defense to blow off the excess carbon dioxide and quickly take in more oxygen. This can continue even into your waking hours.

Complex apnea is the third type, and is a combination of the two. When you have obstructive sleep apnea and it is allowed to continue for an extended time, as a result, central sleep apnea can occur.

Snoring is one of the more common indications of obstructive sleep apnea. However, snoring does not equate to obstructive sleep apnea. It is when the snoring stops, and your breathing stops, that's a good sign that you may be experiencing sleep apnea. After such an episode, it is normally followed by a deep gasp, then snoring continues.

The simple exercise program I created to eliminate snoring is helpful in both main types of sleep apnea. By learning how to strengthen the muscles and tissues of the mouth and throat, episodes of obstructive sleep apnea can be lessened.

My Stop Snoring Program can also cure central sleep apnea, because the exercises which move the muscles stimulates the areas of the brain that contains the respiratory control centers.

Keep in mind that the Stop Snoring Program is in no way intended to diagnosis, treat, or cure severe forms of chronic sleep apnea. You should absolutely seek advice from your primary care physician for a clinical diagnosis and proper medical treatment.

Remember that snoring does not equate to sleep apnea. Although your snoring will definitely be cured by my Stop Snoring Program, and will finally make you and your spouse experience a good night's sleep.

Warm regards,
