Harmful habits like smoking can have a lot to do with the onset and development of sleep apnea. On the contrary, others such as singing could be of help in handling this problem.
Sleep apnea is a potentially serious disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and restarts while you sleep. Pauses can last from one to several seconds and can take one or more breaks throughout the night. Later with each pause the breathing returns to normal.
If you snore loudly and feel tired even after sleeping through the night, you may have sleep apnea. However, not all people with sleep apnea snore. Also, not all people who snore have apnea.
