The impact of sleep apnea isn’t just on your sleep. Whether it’s mild, moderate, or severe, sleep apnea can affect your body and mind. It can impact your mood, may lead to weight gain, low energy levels, headaches, or even memory problems 1. If left untreated, sleep apnea can lower the quality of your health and waking life 1.
Untreated sleep apnea can affect both your mental and physical health. As well as cognitive impairment, low mood and energy levels, the nightly strain on body over the years can impose serious risk to your health1,2,3
Drivers with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are almost 2.5 times more likely to be in a motor vehicle accident4 than drivers without OSA. Using CPAP therapy* for even just 5 hours per night notably reduces this risk5.
Feeling tired all the time can naturally lead to feelings of being overwhelmed. Over a fifth of people with sleep apnea report experiencing mood problems in their daily lives5.
Feeling exhausted at work, missing out on events or struggling to stay involved with friends and family? Treating sleep apnea can help you regain life’s precious moments6.
