Obesity is one of causes of sleep apnea. Obstructive sleep apnea is most commonly diagnosed among overweight adults. It develops when excess fat tissue in the neck partially blocks the airway, most often as a result of neck muscles relaxing during sleep. This causes the airway to become narrowed, preventing air from properly flowing into the lungs. When breathing is obstructed, the level of oxygen in the blood sharply declines and your brain is alerted that you are unable to breathe. This causes you to rouse from sleep though usually not completely. As you begin to wake, the airways open and you’re once again able to catch your breath-often making a series of loud choking or gasping sounds in the process. Many people who have sleep apnea do not realize their sleep is constantly disrupted in this way. Instead, it is often a loved one who brings attention to the chronic loud snoring that commonly accompanies sleep apnea.
