in my last post we discussed how Snoring impacts Oxygen Levels during sleep. In this post, we will discuss the correlation between oxygen drops and Hypertension.
When oxygen drops during snoring episodes, Co2 levels in our body rise. This signals the heart to wake up with a jolt and pump additional blood to compensate for the drop in oxygen!
heart rate measurements during sleep
As can be seen from the above data*, heartrate spikes instantaneously to over 125 bpm from a resting heart rate of around 60 bpm in response to O2 drops!
Repeated stresses imparted on the heart while at rest weakens the heart muscles over time, resulting in heart related issues, the most common being Hypertension!
