How Snoring Increases Weight ?

February18th,2010

While diet and lifestyle do affect how much we weigh, snrong can also affect our weight. Being overweight increases the likelihood that you will snore, but snoring also increases the chance that you will gain weight.

Whenever we wake up, the level of cortisol in our system increases. Cortisol’s job is to raise our booldsugar levels and help our body produce the energy we need to get out of bed and start the day. Cortisol also increases our hunger so that we will ‘fuel’ our bodies with food to get them moving. So our body doesn’t use its energy elsewhere at this critical point, cortisol shuts off the fat-burning gene.

In short, when we have cortisol in our system we feel hungry, don’t burn fat as effectively and experience higher levels of sugar in our system. This is important at the start of the day but can cause problems if it happens when we are supposed to be sleeping.

The body senses each of these wakings and produces cortisol to prepare it for rising. Having cortisol pumped into your system while trying to sleep is like keeping your foot on the brake of your car while revving the engine with your other foot. Eventually healthy muscles wear down and digestion and metabolism are impaired.

Because of excess cortisol in their system, people who continue to have poor sleep patterns on a regular basis do not burn fat as effectively and experience hunger even when they have an adequate amount of food. The results lead to weight gain, especially abdominal weight. Excess cortisol causes cravings for high-energy foods filled with fats, sugars and carbohydrates. On mornings when snoring has raised cortisol levels extra high, suffers may honestly crave a doughnut for breakfast instead of something healthier.

Too much cortisol also causes elevated levels of blood sugar in the system which can lead to insulin resistance and trigger more serious health problems including cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Why Do People Snoring ?

February15th,2010

Snoring occurs when the flow of air from the mouth or nose to your lungs makes the tissues of the airway vibrate. This usually is caused by a blockage (obstruction) or narrowing in the nose, mouth, or throat (airway).

When you inhale during sleep, air enters the mouth or nose and passes across the soft palate (the back of the roof of the mouth) on its way to the lungs.

The tonsils

The tonsils swell while they are fighting bacteria and viruses. the tonsils do not return to their normal size after the infection is gone. They can remain enlarged (hypertrophied) and can narrow the airway vibrate, and cause snoring.

The uvula

An abnormally long or thick uvula also can contribute to snoring.

The soft palate

If the soft palate is too long or floppy, it can vibrate and cause snoring.

The base of the tongue

The tongue must be free to move in all directions to function properly. Therefore, it is not attached very tightly at the tip or top of the tongue. If the back of the tongue is large or if the tongue is able to slip backwards, it can narrow the space through which air flows in the pharynx, which can lead to vibrations and snoring.

The Real Reason Why Do People Snore ?

February11th,2010

First, to exclude causes of respiratory tract stenosis or lesions. If you have these symptoms: nasal obstruction (such as a serious Deviation of nasal septum, turbinate hypertrophy, nasal polyps, nasal tumors, severe sinusitis, etc.), more than? degrees’ tonsillar hypertrophy, tongue or throat cancer, pharyngeal mucosal hypertrophy, tongue hypertrophy, mandibular retrusion, temporomandibular joint dysfunction, small jaw deformities, adenoidal hypertrophy, we propose you should go to the hospital to have a surgery or medical treatment! Because these disease inherently affect the health,
in need of treatment.

Among them, children snoring mostly because of adenoidal hypertrophy. Adenoids are the organs only for children, to adults no avail. For most people in their teens, the adenoids will shrink away, but some of the adenoids does not
shrink and they can be removed in the hospital.

Population ratio of those who sleep, snoring is very high, most people do not have the above symptoms. If you do not have those symptoms are still snoring, if you meet these conditions: obesity, lack of exercise, smoking and drinking, tea coffee, taking tranquilizers, eat spicy food, often stays up late, fatigue, then please do not hesitate to correct!

Fat will narrow the pharyngeal and need to adhere to exercise to lose weight,Snoring is caused by the vibration of the upper respiratory tract while sleeping. There are two structures most commonly associated with snoring,
soft palate (also known as soft board) and the base of the tongue. Alcohol and tobacco, tea coffee, tranquilizers will cause the pharynx and the nasal cavity is more relaxed, sleep when the impact of soft palate, or nasal airflow to create
the same effect as the sound of the whistle, leading to snoring. Spicy food and stay up late at night will lead to get angry, Swelling of the soft palate decreased congestion, Cause respiratory tract stenosis or obstruction, airway impact the soft palate which cause snoring.

In fact, the principle of snoring is the airflow through the pharyngeal muscles leading to vibrate and sound. Vast majority of people sleep with the root causes of snoring are: pharynx (including the soft palate and uvula, tongue, nasal cavity back) muscle relaxation. Each person’s genes are not the same, a considerable number of people (can be said to account for the majority of the crowd) have natural relaxation pharyngeal muscle. When people sleeping, the nerve completely relaxed, pharynx muscles more relaxed, leading to respiratory gases through the soft palate or tongue base hit, making it vibrate, resulting in snoring.

This is the reason why uvulopalatopharyngoplasty surgery (UPPP) Governance snoring (including the so-called low-temperature plasma of advanced technology) has low cure rate and high recurrence rate. Some time after the operation, loose flesh grow back, re-block the airway, breathing vibration of snoring! Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty surgery (UPPP) in fact valid only for these people: As the soft palate is too long or the tongue is too large leading to pharyngeal stenosis but pharyngeal muscles strong. but this person is extremely rare. In fact, most of the doctors have reached a conclusion that palate pharyngoplasty surgery can only be useful up to five or six years, after which nearly all will relapse, but all patients do not know it.

Similarly, any drug can only eliminate the nasopharynx inflammation, congestion, swelling (ie, so-called “throat drug”) just did a bit results, but most of snorers are still snoring even if nasopharynx intact, no any inflammation. At present there is no one drug over the world can make the relax muscles to become strong, so it is invalid. Just think, if the drug effectively, then why should bodybuilders trained hard in order to exercise a muscle.

Any of the existing sports, productive work and daily activities, are simply unable to exercise pharyngeal muscles, so whatever you how to strengthen the movement and lose weight, snoring that is unable to remove! Some people will tell you, “I do not snore through smoking, drinking every day,” it is because of his genes different with you. he was born a very strong tight pharyngeal muscles, so he was fine!

Hazards of women snoring

February4th,2010

The hazards of women snoring mainly in the following three aspects:

First, a result of snoring women looking chlorosis caused by poor blood circulation, rough skin, fat bloated, deformed posture, bad breath, mouth pain, irregular menstruation and other serious injury to their health disease, severe cases may even be ahead of schedule 3-15 entered the post-menopausal women, menopause; Black eye, big bags under the eyes, crow’s feet, facial skin relaxation is the biggest drawback of beauty affect women. While the poor quality of sleep will cause a relaxation of facial skin, eye socket pigment mutation, big bags under the eyes, dark circles and crow’s feet, but also to make white of the eye cloudy is unclear, cloudy eyes gives the impression that is lifeless, old-fashioned term, premature crow’s feet will bring you long-term worry and anxiety, what cosmetics are of no avail.

Second, the snoring women in general would love tired of feeling of resentment, a direct impact on the present or future emotional and sexual life of couples, but also to a certain extent, influence children’s growth and development (such as snoring during pregnancy, the fetus will result in lack of oxygen, seriously affecting fetal growth and development and intellectual);

Third, the snoring women in social interaction generally heavier psychological pressure, especially in high tension in the spirit of sleep, study and work during the day when drowsy and a sense of listlessness, forgetful of the feelings, eventually leading to neurasthenia, neuroticdisease, hypertension, coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but also the formation of self-esteem, withdrawal, irritability, interpersonal relationships are not harmonious personality disorder. In short can be said that the dangers of women snore even more than men. In order to avoid snoring to you live, learn, work and social communication bring a lot of trouble, and now the timely prevention and treatment of Naishi your wisdom.

Dangerous Snoring People

February4th,2010

Following persons will be dangerous if they are snoring:

Young men

As the pace of life accelerated in modern society, complicated social environment, increasing high pressure of young people in work, study and life, more serious degree of erosion and the consumption of alcohol and tobacco items hypertrophy greasy, eesulting in young people in physical and mental exhaustion caused often by a variety of reasons among the cardio-cerebral vascular diseases, the incidence is rising. Snoring on the one hand serious injury young people in the various organs of the body organs especially the heart and brain, the other is for their work, living, learning and communication has brought a lot of inconvenience. For example students will increase snoring psychological burden of the students might even have a sense of inferiority, lower student memory, seriously affecting academic performance and the communication between students; Young people, if not treated in time will make premature sexual function decline, affecting the harmony of sexual life, causing marital tension, and lead to high blood pressure, arrhythmia and other serious illness; Middle-aged man snoring if not promptly treated, this will result looked tired, tired body fatigue, dizziness dizziness, forgetfulness and dreaminess, sexual life skills dramatically reduced symptoms of accelerated aging, and will further increase the high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity and other diseases, and even induce stroke, partial paralysis and other serious incidents of life difficult to care for themselves.

The aged

In health, this is a “troubled” group, On the one hand, snoring will “create” some diseases, such as hypertension, heart disease, cerebral thrombosis, impotence and so on. On the other hand, due to older age groups are already suffering from varying degrees of these diseases, it is a vicious snoring is no different from “off into the next stone, “so that their condition” worse “, more stubbornly intractable.

Pregnant women and snoring women

The researchers pointed out: snore could spill over unborn fetus of pregnant women. Snoring pregnant women with a high probability of pre-eclampsia, a serious snoring pregnant women, blood pressure will rise, increasing the possibility of hypoxemia occurred, and these pathological changes involving the development of the fetus, causing fetal growth retardation. there is a long time history of snoring, especially the history of vicious snoring pregnant women, need to be alert to whether the fetus has significantly increased heart rate faster or that there is fetal distress symptoms, so that timely medical treatment. marriage have snoring disease, young women, if not treated in time will affect the sex life after marriage and after pregnancy for fetal development, can also cause rough skin, looking chlorosis, irregular menstruation, and even 3-15 years into menopause early menopause. overweight, older, with smoking habits of women most likely to occur snoring problem, but young, slim build, hate smoking, living a normal life of women, once the snoring, it indicates that there is latent neurasthenia, hypertension and heart disease .

Children

The information from the medical profession in Hong Kong showed that for every 100 children in about 5 with malignant snorers, the disease can cause stunted, or heart failure. The child will be difficulty in breathing during sleep, snoring sound great and do not uniform, the body over and over again, sweating, mouth breathing and so on. Some researchers believe that those who do not sleep at night free from anxiety, 5-year-old is still bed-wetting, excessive daytime active form lasting bonds with children are most vulnerable, but are often susceptible to their parents and even doctors ignored, to children’s development of backward and thin physique.

Some Thing About Snoring

February4th,2010

Practice has proved that: Snoring is not only a malignant disease, but also lead to high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, diabetes, hemiplegia, stroke, sexual dysfunction, menstrual disorders, memory reduction, senile dementia, sudden death and even the “culprit ”! every one suffering from snoring disease, people who have this kind of pain experience: the one hand, the various organs of the body organs especially the heart and brain were serious injury, the other is for their work, living, learning and social communication has brought a lot of trouble.

Snoring and high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, fatty liver, alcohol liver disease, sexual dysfunction, as one by one after another “birth” of the “twin brothers”, was devastated by the physical health, must be thoroughly cure! (Snoring and hypertension , coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases the causal relationship is this: sleep apnea snoring at night generated so that the brain and the heart exposed to ischemia and hypoxia, this time in the human body’s self-regulatory function of the nervous system to start in order to maintain normal blood pressure , the course of time considerable period of time has led to high blood pressure, coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. those pathological changes so that patients have the following symptoms such as drowsiness, early morning headaches, personality changes, agitation, mental decline, memory poor, arrhythmias and so on, and make the physical appearance of patients with premature aging.)

Children Snoring Affect The Intellectual Development

February3rd,2010

In many people’s minds, snoring seem to be an adult thing, in fact, there are snoring children. If children noticeable snoring, restless sleep, frequent awakening and so on during sleep, will easily lead to children’s daytime fatigue, easy to doze off, unable to focus on school, academic decline and even symptoms of mental behavior disorder, parents should be cautious of children with snoring attacks.

The incidence of children with snoring and found children aged 2-6 in his sleep snoring prevalence rate of 5.5%, accompanied by sleep apnea incidence of 0.19%, 0.6% of children sleeping breath when the mouth opening. The study can represent the major cities in China the incidence of children with snoring results show that snoring and apnea in children is not uncommon.

Relative to adults,  the cause of children snoring relatively clear, the vast majority of the tonsil and adenoid vegetation due. Some children are due to different causes of obesity and snoring occurs.

Promotion of child growth and development of growth hormone, mainly in a state of deep sleep at night secretion of children suffering from snoring due to the poor quality of sleep, reach deep sleep, the general will appear short stature, mental retardation, inability to concentrate,irritability and hyperactivity, do not love to learn and so on. For infants and young children, the nervous system in the developmental stages, is very sensitive to hypoxia, once because of severe apnea attacks frequently lead to hypoxia and metabolic disorders, can easily cause irreversible brain damage.

When children snoring nasopharyngeal obstruction due to long-term mouth breathing, causing the upper and lower teeth bite is not normal, over time, often leading to facial deformity and development, may affect the child’s physical and mental development in the future. Children’s upper airway blockage is apt to cause sinusitis, or otitis media, and recurrent seizures, prolonged unhealed.

The diagnosis of children with snoring, it is necessary to find out by asking children whether the parents of children with nighttime snoring, mouth breathing, shortness of breath, hold back awake, hyperactivity, and inattention, growth retardation, enuresis and other history, so parents daily should carefully observe the situation and daytime sleep of children with a number of activities.

Snoring and Alcohol

February3rd,2010

Cold winter, many men like to drink wine, after drink a few glasses of wine, warmth will be slowly boiled to. Doctors warned that some diseases less alcohol consumption, especially for those who do not sleep, snoring.

Sleep snoring’s upper airway was relatively narrow, falling asleep after drinking alcohol on the upper airway when the muscles have a direct role in paralysis and relaxation, when the already narrow upper airway collapse will occur repeatedly, blocking, and thus give rise Sleep choking phenomenon.

Sleep snoring woke up after people who drink a result of deficiency of oxygen occurs during sleep, after waking dry mouth, daytime sleepiness, attention is not easy to decreased concentration or memory; will appear early morning blood pressure, increased nocturia and other symptoms, while the high blood pressure, angina, cardiac arrhythmia, stroke and other cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events also greatly increase the probability that this drink is called “sleep apnea syndrome.”

In addition, a large number of brain asphyxia after drinking a wake-up reactions become slow, choking extended, especially in late at night the situation will increase, sleep, sudden death may occur.

Leading to snoring,  sleep apnea is the root cause of throat drugs, snoring long treatment is the bane of recurrent laryngeal toxicity has not been effectively removed. Direct erosion of nasopharyngeal throat muscle toxicity, leading to the nasopharynx, throat muscle relaxation hypertrophy, nasopharyngeal respiratory airflow has been blocked, when the air flow through the narrow part of the nasopharynx, the resulting eddy current and cause vibration, and thus there snoring, and in severe inspiratory Breath was completely blocked, leading to sudden death!

Why Snoring Women Increasing ?

February3rd,2010

As a result of obesity and the right knowledge about snoring, the amount of snoring women go to the hospital’s “snoring every night,”  increased significantly.

Doctors say seven or eight years ago, a month of women admitted to snoring than 10 people.Recently admitted to the upper 100 a month out-patient and hospitalization in patients with snoring, women accounted for about 20%, more than seven or eight years ago to more than double, while patients over the age of the main body 45 than fat women.  Many people think that snoring is not a disease, in fact, sometimes snoring is a precursor to the body of the emerging disease. If the individual than the thin female body, in the event snoring, indicating that there are latent neurasthenia, hypertension and heart disease.

The reason why do snoring women increasing

  • First, with the increase in obese women, its throat fat accumulation, leading to airway pressure, the normal respiratory narrow, causing poor breathing during sleep caused snoring;
  • Second, early menopause for individual women, inhibit snoring progesterone and estrogen reduced or disappear, leading to high incidence of snoring;
  • Third, to overcome shyness increased understanding of the psychological harm as well as snoring, to the hospital to have more.

Compared to influence others to rest, snoring is more serious physical harm. Experts say snoring could be a sign of sleep apnea. In the treatment, doctors had encountered a female patient of sleep apnea appears multiple times in the suspension the longest time as high as 58 seconds. The sleep apnea can cause daytime sleepiness, headaches.  Accumulated also cause high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular accident, epilepsy and other diseases. At the same time, people with sleep apnea syndrome, driver, traffic accident rate 2-3 times higher than normal.

How To Stop Snoring ?

February3rd,2010

How to stop snoring ? Sleeping on side, especially in the right decubitus is appropriate, Avoid sleep tongue, soft palate, uvula relax after the fall, increased upper airway blockage.

Snoring is a common sleep phenomenon, most people now think that this is common, but not agree, there are people have sleep snoring as incense performance. In fact, snoring is the enemy of health, due to snoring to sleep apnea repeatedly suspended, resulting in the brain, blood, severe hypoxia, the formation of low-oxygen disorder, which induced high blood pressure, brain heart disease, cardiac arrhythmia, myocardial infarction angina. Apnea at night time, more than 120 seconds easily in the early hours of sudden death.

How To Stop Snoring

  • To enhance physical activity, maintaining a good lifestyle.
  • Avoid tobacco and alcohol addiction, because smoking can cause respiratory symptoms increased, alcohol consumption increased snoring, night-disordered breathing and hypoxemia.Especially the bedtime drink.
  • For the obese, to actively lose weight, increase physical activity. Generally speaking, is to relieve the weight of 5% -10% or more.
  • Snoring patients in a blood oxygen content decreased, Gu Chang accompanied by high blood pressure, heart rhythm disorders, increased blood viscosity, heart burden easily lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, it should pay attention to blood pressure monitoring, time to take antihypertensive drugs.
  • Bedtime to prohibit taking sedative, hypnotics should not increase the inhibition of regulation of the respiratory center.
  • Take lateral position sleeping posture, especially in the right decubitus is appropriate to avoid sleep when the tongue, soft palate, uvula relax after the fall, increased upper airway blockage.Bei during sleep may be a small rubber ball back and help maintain the lateral position mandatory sleep.

How to stop snoring ?

Low temperature plasma ablation technique surgery, Its basic principle is that low-temperature ablation, which uses low-temperature radiofrequency energy to about 40 degrees low temperature plasma to carry out the organization of the ablation, so as to reduce tissue injury, and can greatly reduce the suffering of the patients and shorten the rehabilitation period, block anterior ethmoidal nerve and sphenopalatine nerves, reduce the nasal mucosa of allergic sensitivity of the material has achieved significant results, this treatment injury is small, effective, quick recovery, no hospitalization, no complications, the past few years have been successfully cured thousands of cases of snoring  patients suffering relieved.
