Festive season cheers often come with a hidden cost: loud snoring! 🥂

It’s vital to understand the science: increased alcohol consumption acts as a sedative, causing the muscles in your throat to relax significantly. This restriction dramatically worsens snoring and can increase the occurrence of dangerous apneic events.

We urge you to enjoy your celebrations, but prioritise sleep safety and be aware of how alcohol affects your breathing.

Enjoy the holidays responsibly—and sleep soundly. For referrals, ask your GP to complete the form on our website 👉 www.sleepdisorders.co.za.

Why do seasonal changes hit our energy and mood so hard? We're shedding some light on Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). 🌤️

Even as the weather shifts, many people struggle with profound disruptions to their body clock and energy levels. These are some key symptoms to look out for:

☁️Increased need for sleep (but still feeling tired)
☁️A persistent lack of energy and motivation
☁️Notable changes in appetite or diet

If these symptoms are impacting your daily life, it’s more than just a passing slump - it highlights an issue with underlying sleep and mood regulation.

If you recognise these symptoms, it’s time to assess your sleep health and gain clarity. Find resources at www.sleepdisorders.co.za.

The festive season is finally here! While the late nights and travel are fun, they can quickly accumulate sleep debt. 😴

Quick Tip: To mitigate the damage, try to pay back the debt slowly by adding an extra hour of sleep when possible, and prioritise consistent bedtimes, even when traveling.
Don't let sleep debt steal your holiday joy.

Learn how to manage it at www.sleepdisorders.co.za For persistent fatigue and sleep issues, we urge you to ask your GP to complete a referral form on our website.

It's time for some direct facts!

❌ MYTH: "Weight Loss Cures Sleep Apnea."

✅ FACT: While weight reduction can drastically improve sleep apnea, it rarely offers a total cure, especially if the cause is structural. A comprehensive diagnosis is always necessary to identify the root cause and prescribe the correct treatment.

Get the facts, not the myths. Have your GP complete a referral form on www.sleepdisorders.co.za.

Untreated sleep apnea and poor blood sugar control are locked in a harmful, two-way street (not many people know that). 🩸

Did you know that sleep apnea significantly increases insulin resistance, and conversely, high blood sugar levels can worsen sleep issues? This continuous cycle of stress and poor sleep needs to be broken.

Understand the science. Visit www.sleepdisorders.co.za for more educational insights into the sleep-diabetes link.

We all know a snorer! But are they just snoring, or is it something more serious? 🤔

Simple Snoring is the sound of turbulent airflow. Sleep Apnea Gasping is the sound of the body fighting for air after breathing has stopped (a sign of oxygen deprivation!).

So if you guessed sleep apnea… ding ding ding! You are correct. Gasping is a serious signal and should not be ignored!
