INTERESTING & USEFUL SLEEP APNEA DOUBLES RISK OF STROKE, DEATH. A study released on Nov 10, shows that the risk of stroke and death at least doubles due to common sleep apnea in which the throat closes off throughout the night. > Approximately 4% of Americans suffer from severe daytime fatigue because their sleep is disrupted by sleep apnea, forcing them to frequently wake up if only for a second. > Another 16% of Americans have apnea without fatigue. A seven-year study at the Yale University School of Medicine, found that people with apnea were twice as likely to die or have a stroke. The risk more than tripled among volunteers with the worst apnea. The study also showed that the risk continued even with treatment to keep the throat open during sleep,mostly through a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine. Other study volunteers lost weight or had surgery to ease their symptoms.

it comes in all shapes and flavors, there’s more to chocolate than meets the eye. The present day chocolate makers are swiveling their spatulas and creating items from decadent truffles to sleek and creamy chocolate bars. Get an inside look and be prepared… your mouth will water… uncontrollably… Some say winter brings out the best moods for chocolate; others are appealed by the melting sensation left by a chocolate during hot summer days.What’s your pick? Well if you’re a manic, chocolate is for every season. But if you’re like most other people you’re probably thinking… the manic is right!
