Sleep Apnea: The Undiagnosed Epidemic
You Might Stop Breathing 30 Times an Hour
Every night, millions of people stop breathing — repeatedly. Their airway collapses, oxygen drops, their brain panics them awake just enough to restart breathing, and then the cycle repeats. This can happen 30, 50, even 100 times per hour. Most of them have no idea it's happening. Obstructive sleep apnea is one of the most common, most dangerous, and most underdiagnosed conditions in the world.
