Are you tired of constantly snoring? Well here is a device that can possibly help you when all else has failed. It is considered a watch although it doesn’t really serve its main purpose of telling the time. The good side is that it has a sensitive micro-sound detector that will detect when you’re snoring. Once it does that it will send a very mild electronic signal.

It is even capable of distinguishing between snoring and just other noises in general. This device will make slow down the frequency of your snoring as well as make it so you don’t snore quite so loudly. The Anti-Snoring Device Snore Stopper Watch retails for $36.00 over at Amazon.

According to a study from the Oxford Centre for Respiratory Medicine in the UK, those who suffer from even mild sleep apnea are at risk of suffering a heart attack. The study will be published in the first issue for November of the American Thoracic Society’s American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine.

“It was previously known that people with OSA severe enough to affect their daytime alertness and manifest in other ways are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease, but this finding suggests that many more people—some of whom may be completely unaware that they even have OSA—are at risk than previously thought,” said lead author of the study, Malcolm Kohler, M.D.

Professor Horne, director of Loughborough University’s Sleep Research Centre is of the rather controversial opinion that sleep-deprivation is a myth. According to his study, how alert a person is in the morning doesn’t depend on his sleep but his genes!

Writing in the New Scientist, he said: “The fact is most adults get enough sleep, and our collective sleep debt, if it exists at all, has not worsened in recent times. “My assertion is that the vast majority of people sleep perfectly adequately. That’s not to say that sleep deprivation doesn’t exist. But in general we’ve never had it so good.”

A new study shows that women over 70 who manage to get only five hours of sleep are at a higher risk of falling and having an accident. Researchers measured the sleep time of 2,978 women and found out those who slept less than five hours were about 47 percent more likely to have fallen more than once.

“People think getting less sleep is just a normal aspect of aging,” said Katie L. Stone, the lead author and a scientist at the California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute. “But you should bring it to the attention of your physician. There are options available for treatment.”

According to Virginia Zamudio-Lange, a speaker last week in Washington at the 35th Annual Meeting of the American Association of Diabetes Educators only 47 percent doctors make the connection between sleep apnea and diabetes. Hence in the United States alone 85 percent of sleep apnea cases among diabetics go undiagnosed.

“Zamudio-Lange reported that in a sleep apnea screening protocol developed at Alamo Diabetes Team in San Antonio, diabetes educators asked patients about snoring and fatigue as they made preliminary diabetes assessments. Patients who reported apnea-like symptoms were categorized as high-risk and referred for further evaluation or possible treatment.”
