A study says people who snore — such as those suffering from obstructive sleep apnea — may also have an increased risk of cancer, according to the New York Post. Symptons of OSA, which is an obstruction of people’s airways when they sleep, are loud snoring, gasping and daytime sleepiness as it can cause a lack of oxygen.Dr. Andreas Palm, of Uppsala University in Sweden, said in a press release that while it’s known already that patients with OSA have an increased risk of cancer “it has not been clear whether or not this is due to the OSA itself or to related risk factors for cancer, such as obesity, cardiometabolic disease and lifestyle factors.
Lifestyle factors such as physical activity and food preferences were not accounted for, and more research is planned.
