10 Hormones That Can Worsen Sleep Apnea
Doctor Steven Park
@doctorstevenparkAbout
Discover why you can't sleep. But be warned...you will not find the typical sleep hygiene or hacks you see in most videos. My basic premise as an ENT surgeon and sleep doctor is that all modern humans are susceptible to breathing problems at night due our faces (and airways) slowly shrinking. My videos will cover a variety of health topics such as nasal congestion, fatigue, sleep apnea, brain fog, TMJ, weight loss and wellness, but through the lens of optimal breathing during sleeping. I cover this more fully in my Amazon best-selling book, Sleep, Interrupted. https://amzn.to/49euNQg I will upload one video about every week on various health topics about optimal breathing, sleep, and health. Please subscribe to my channel, and I will do my best to respond to as many comments as possible.

Video Description
What do hormones have to do with obstructive sleep apnea? In this video, I’m going to go over 10 specific hormones that are found to either make sleep apnea better or worse. I’m sure that you’ll be surprised by what you’ll learn. I was surprised by some of this as well. Stick to the end when I’ll reveal one particular hormone that you’d never expect, one that the vast majority of people in the US and the rest of the world are very low in. 📌 Sleep Better to Balance Your Hormones 📌 Sign up for a Virtual Coaching session with Dr. Park ➡️ http://askdoctorpark.com ⬅️ ✅ TIMELINE 00:00 Introduction 01:43 1.
