You probably don't need another lecture from your doctor, your dentist or your spouse. Yes, you know should floss your teeth every night. But you're hearing more about sleep apnea and how this sleep disorder is affecting a lot more people these days. People across the country, including here in Southern California, are looking online for more information about sleep apnea.

It's my pleasure to provide some of the most vital facts about sleep apnea in an easy to swallow infographic.

You want to know:

  • What is sleep apnea?
  • What do all those acronyms mean?
    • OSA
    • SDB
    • TMI (just kidding, that's easy: Too Much Information)
  • What are the consequences of undiagnosed sleep apnea?
  • How does sleep apnea affect your overall health?

Take a look, you just might learn a thing or two.

And if there's something else you'd like to know, please leave your question in the comment section below.
