Obstructive sleep

During, the apnoeic, event, the person, is unable to breathe,

in oxygen, and to exhale, carbon dioxide, resulting in low levels,

of oxygen, and increased, levels, of carbon dioxide,

in the blood,

Obstructive, sleep-apnea, is marked by the frequent, collapse,

of the airway, during, sleep, making it difficult, for victims,

to breathe, for periods, lasting, as long as 10 seconds,

Smokers, are three, times, as likely, to have obstructive,

sleep,apnea, than are people, who're never smoked,

by alleviating, one of the main, causes, of sleep-apnea,

Common, signs, of obstructive, sleep, include, unexplained,

daytime, sleepiness, restless sleep, and loud, snoring,

muscles, to breathe,

Weight, reduction, initiatives, include, physical, exercises,

along, with special, exercises, for toning, and strengthening,

the breathing, muscles, as they, usually, become, weak,

and flaccid, due, to excess, fat, accumulation ,

less, intrusive, and more flexible,

The air flow, from the mask, is now, directed,

to the connecting, tube, so, rarely, feel, the rush, of cold,

air, on yourself, or a partner,

The mask, itself ,is secured, by a plastic, clip, and rarely,

comes, off, accidentally,
