So why is snoring considered as a silent killer? An article from http://www.capitalfm.co.ke has pointed out some ways by which snoring can kill you:

  • Snoring as a sign of sleep apnoea may make you stop breathing during sleep without your knowledge. This may be due to a partial or a complete obstruction of the airways, giving rise to a lack of oxygen which can be hazardous to the body.

  • During airway obstruction during snoring, you may eventually wake affecting your body in ways like persistent headaches and high blood pressure.

  • Snoring can lead to many more problems such as acid reflux, frequent nighttime urination, memory loss, stroke, depression, diabetes and heart attacks.
