April 18th is Sleep Apnea Awareness Day 2012!

The American Sleep Apnea Association (ASAA) has declared April 18, 2012 as Sleep Apnea Awareness Day. Sleep Apnea occurs when the airway is blocked during sleep, causing loss of oxygen to the blood, and causing the body to not be able to achieve deep REM sleep. REM sleep is essential to the human body and without it a person never feels rested. The affects of sleep deprivation are cumulative. The American Sleep Apnea Association (ASAA) has issued a YouTube Video to help with awareness. Please share it with your friends and family. Sleep Apnea is no joke, it can be life-threatening and is easily treated with effective results.
