About this title

From the Inside Flap:

Dr. Park's revelation was eye-popping. It started with seeing patient after patient presenting similar histories: chronic sinus, ear, or throat problems, stress, fatigue, depression, and surprisingly, trouble sleeping on their backs. He began to suspect a connection between breathing problems at night and their various health and wellness issues. He knew that, anatomy-wise, the human ability to speak is actually a liability when it comes to breathing efficiency-humans are the only animals that can choke and die. If his patients' night breathing was poor, not only were they not getting good sleep, it could be tipping the balance of their health, making them vulnerable to a host of illnesses and conditions.On the other hand, if they're experiencing health conditions or illnesses that obstruct nighttime breathing, that could be the beginning of a vicious cycle: health problem, poor breathing during sleep, more health problems. The breakthrough came when he began to treat the night breathing and sleep position parts of the equation. Lo and behold, his patients showed immediate and drastic improvement in their health complaints.Sleep, Interrupted takes you step-by-step through the widespread problems created by obstructed breathing at night. You'll be shocked to discover how many illnesses stem from this one problem, and relieved to find clear, concise, actionable information and support for you and your doctor to review. Packed with easy-to-follow research and practical suggestions for a wide array of health issues, this book may just hold the answer to the question of why you feel so lousy, and what you can do to start feeling better today.
