Is Snoring Hereditary'
Are you wondering if snoring is a problem that you can pass on to your children' Unfortunately, the answer is yes, you can. According
to a research study published in the journal "Chest", children that have at least one parent that snored were three times more likely to
snore themselves when compared to children whose parents had no snoring problem. The study was undertaken in order to more
accurately determine the inheritance of snoring due to the fact that snoring is “the primary symptom of sleep-disordered breathing”.
Truly, snoring is a warning sign for the dreaded affliction known as Obstructive Sleep Apnoea, or OSA. This disorder causes the sufferer
to stop breathing while asleep due to airway obstructions. Basic, primary snoring is hindered breathing, but it is breathing nonetheless.
When Obstructive Sleep Apnoea is present, the victim will stop breathing for periods longer than 10 seconds while asleep, waking them
up to make them gasp and choke for air.
This problem is not only an issue in the evening, either. Obstructive Sleep Apnoea leaves the afflicted with sore throats and headaches
when they wake up. The lack of sleep due to the OSA is responsible for a lack of concentration, irritability, and bad behavior. If OSA is
left untreated, it can increase blood pressure, lower blood-oxygen levels, make the heart work harder, and cause a greater occurrence of
heart attacks and strokes.
For the research study, 681 children in Cincinnati Children’s Hospital medical centre were studied. The researchers also found
that African-American children were roughly 3 times as likely to snore then children of other races. In addition, the study showed that
