Did you know that obesity is one of the most common causes of Sleep Apnoea?
You need to see a Doctor for an official diagnosis, but if you are experiencing the following symptoms you may be suffering from sleep apnoea:
- Daytime sleepiness, fatigue and tiredness
- Poor concentration
- Irritability and mood changes
- Impotence and reduced sex drive.
People with sleep apnoea are at an increased risk of motor vehicle accidents and developing diseases such as hypertension, heart attack and stroke.
One of the first steps in treating sleep apnoea is weight loss, in fact by losing 5-10kg you can dramatically reduce the severity of the disorder. At the Wesley Weight Management Clinic we have seen many people reduce the symptoms of Sleep Apnoea by completing our weight loss program, so it's a great place to start.
