Facebooktwitterredditpinterestmail

Many people believe that CPAP’s only benefit is to prevent snoring, but that is far from the truth. There are many physical and psychological benefits to CPAP therapy, and we are going to discuss some of those benefits and how CPAP provides meaningful aid in heart disease prevention, stroke prevention, diabetes prevention, and improved emotional stability.

Here are 4 ways CPAP therapy keeps you healthy:

1. Heart Disease Prevention

Untreated sleep apnea can put continuous strain on the heart, which increases the risk of heart disease and other heart problems. Using CPAP therapy over an extended period of time may greatly reduce risk of heart problems and related death. These heart problems include:

  • Congestive heart failure
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Irregular heartbeat
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Irregular heartbeat

2. Stroke Prevention

Strokes are one of the leading causes of death and long-term disability, and people with untreated sleep apnea are two to four times more likely to have a stroke. Consistent CPAP usage may reduce risk of stroke, so it’s extremely important to stay compliant with CPAP when diagnosed with sleep apnea. Need a new machine?
