Sleep apnea just might be a silent killer.  Two new studies
published in the August issue of the Journal Sleep report that
sleep apnea increases the risk of death from any cause, especially
if left untreated.

Adults with severe sleep apnea, or sleep-disordered breathing, are
up to 3X more likely to die prematurely from any cause, according
to a Wisconsin study that analyzed 1,500 adults over an 18-year
period. The study found that 19% of adults with a severe form of
the condition died during follow-up, compared with only 4% of
those who did not have the disease.

Sleep apnea is a condition that causes a person to suffer shallow
or paused breathing for about 10–20 seconds for up to 20 or 30
times an hour, according to the National Library of Medicine.

WebMD reports that approximately 6% of American adults have a
moderate to severe form of the sleep apnea and 17% suffer from
milder forms.  Previous studies have hinted at a link between sleep
apnea and premature death, but those studies were conducted in
sleep centers.

Researchers involved in a Wisconsin study say that proper
treatment of the disease, such as the use of continuous positive
airway pressure (CPAP) to keep airways open during sleep, can
decrease the risk of death.

New Method Just Might be the Cure to Sleep Apnea

Dr. Walter Fong, DC located in Laguna Beach, CA has spent several
years researching and personally suffering from snoring.  He
discovered that snoring and obstructive sleep apnea is a result of
failed biomechanics in the upper airway.

In other words, the structures of the upper airway have collapsed
due to muscular weakness and aging, resulting in an obstruction of
the airflow that produces snoring.  As the obstruction advances
and there is a more complete closing of the airway, obstructive
sleep apnea becomes the end result.

Through research on himself, Dr. Fong identified these muscles and
developed the Silent Night Treatment that teaches you how to
rebuild your throat musculature to mitigate the effects of snoring,
including the soft palate, tongue, jaw, lips and hyoid bone.
This system is involves isometric exercises based on normal human
biomechanics and involves no side effects.

What is the Formula for a Good Night’s Sleep?

There are a series of exercises that must be undertaken over a
certain length of time in order to see results from the Silent Night
Treatment.  Below are a few suggestions of what you can expect,
but are not anywhere near the full formula.

You will first learn to park your tongue at the floor of your mouth.
Your lips are closed and teeth are slightly apart.

Second, the hard palate, soft palate and uvula must rest tightly on
the tongue forming a seal without any fluid or air space between
them.  You will learn how to squeeze
out any air gap between the tongue and the palates with your
tongue.  The next step involves allowing the tip of your tongue to
protrude slightly beyond the front teeth.

These are the beginning steps of the Silent Night Treatment that
has been so successful in helping long-term sufferers stop snoring
altogether.
