cause of sleep deprivation is snoring
Snoring can be caused by a number of things. It could be as simple as the anatomy of your mouth and sinuses. It could also be from alcohol consumption, weight gain and sleep deprivation.
When we fall into a deep sleep, our throat muscles relax, and the airway becomes more narrow. The more narrowed the airway, the more resistance the airflow encounters, causing the surrounding tissues to vibrate. These vibrations produce the sound we recognize as snoring.
Lots of people snore, so it’s easy to see why some people ignore it. The problem is, it can be an indication that something more serious is happening, like sleep apnea. Sleep apnea is a potentially serious sleep disorder that obstructs your airways and involuntarily pauses your breathing for brief periods of time.
Everyone snores from time to time, but when it’s chronic, you should seek medical advice. Not only because it’s disruptive to your (and your family’s) sleep, it’s also a sign of a larger health issue.
