Continuing to reveal interesting relationships between the two situations, the scientific world has added a new one today. New research published in Oxford Academic showed that people who snore at night are less active during the day. The conclusion was obtained by examining three years of data.
The study, conducted by examining the snoring frequency and inactivity data of individuals for the last 3 years of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), revealed that people who snore more at night were more inactive during the day. It was also shared which type of individuals snoring is most common.
The inactivity of snorers more than doubles during the day:
According to the data in the study, people who said they never snore spent an average of 36 minutes a day inactive. However, this period increased more in those who snore at night. So much so that in people who were observed to snore at night, the inactivity status during the day increased by 44 minutes, that is, it was more than doubled. The head of the research, Dr. Michael Grandner shared the following comments about the results:
“Sleep-related breathing problems such as snoring and sleep apnea are very common in the population. But these problems don’t just affect the night. They can lead to more fatigue and less energy, which can affect everything from mood to stress to activity level as we see it. This may be why snoring alone can affect health and well-being.”
