REASONS WHY SLEEP APNEA BE BEHIND WEIGHT PROBLEMS?
As every year, with the approaching summer months, people’s desire to lose weight and get into shape increased. While the most effective methods of weight loss known are diet and exercise appropriate to the person, research conducted by experts has pointed out that healthy and regular sleep is a major factor in weight loss. Turkey Medicals member and Chin and face prosthesis Turkish specialist doctor gave information about the subject.
A healthy and regular sleep plays an effective role in weight loss. Problems such as sleep apnea can cause metabolism to slow down and weight gain.
While the hormonal balance of people who do not get enough sleep is impaired, this reduces the metabolic rate and stops weight loss. Research shows that less than 6 hours of sleep causes weight gain and increases the risk of obesity in individuals by 45 percent. At the beginning of the triggers is sleep apnea.
Snoring and sleep apnea, which cause intermittent as well as frequent divided sleep, make it difficult to lose weight, and the person gains weight even when eating normally. Weight gain is caused by snoring and sleep apnea, which reduces the quality of sleep and reduces the secretion of hormones such as lectin, melotonin, which are secreted during sleep.
In addition, Turkish people with snoring and sleep apnea avoid work that requires effort because they feel constantly tired during the day, which is one of the factors that facilitates weight gain. The incidence of sleep apnea in people with weight problems (obese) is 70 percent.
Especially if there is lubrication in the neck area, this can narrow the person’s airway. Because sleep apnea occurs when the airway is blocked while sleeping, symptoms can increase in parallel with weight gain.
It is possible to get rid of sleep apnea, which is one of the biggest causes of unhealthy sleep, with a snoring prosthesis. Snoring prosthesis, which is effective in 90-95 percent of patients, successfully opens the blocked respiratory tract and prevents the formation of snoring and sleep apnea. The prosthesis, which is prepared according to the person, does not require any surgical intervention and is only used during sleep.
