DID YOU KNOW?!
Sleep disorders like sleep apnea are more prevalent in U.S. adults than you might think. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found that three in four U.S. adults have sleep disorder symptoms. [1] Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a very common condition where the upper airway becomes blocked while sleeping. Different factors determine your likelihood of developing sleep apnea. Here are a few key things you should know about OSA, its effects on overall health, and treatments.

🫁Approximately 39 million U.S. adults have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).
🫀936 million adults around the world are estimated to have mild to severe OSA.
🫁Snoring is a common symptom of sleep apnea in up to 94% of patients.
🫀Untreated sleep apnea can lead to heart, kidney, and metabolic health complications.
🫁It’s estimated that 33 million U.S. adults use a CPAP machine, including President Joe Biden.
😁Sleep apnea treatment can improve quality of life and help regulate blood pressure
