Washington INSOMNIA
*******************
Sleep
Deprivation - Insomnia Versus Poor Sleep Quality - Poor sleep quality can occur
as a result of sleep apnea or clinical depression. Poor sleep quality is caused
by the individual not reaching
stage 4 or delta sleep which has restorative properties. There are, however,
people who are unable to achieve stage 4 sleep due to brain damage who lead
perfectly normal lives.
* Sleep apnea is a condition that occurs when a sleeping person's breathing is
interrupted, thus interrupting the normal sleep cycle. With the obstructive form
of the condition, some part of the sleeper's respiratory tract loses muscle tone
and partially collapses. People with obstructive sleep apnea often do not
remember awakening or having difficulty breathing, but they complain of
excessive sleepiness during the day. Central sleep apnea interrupts the normal
breathing stimulus of the central nervous system, and the individual must
actually wake up to resume breathing. This form of apnea is often related to a
cerebral vascular condition, congestive heart failure, and premature aging.
Major depression leads to alterations in the function of the
hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, causing excessive release of cortisol which
can lead to poor sleep quality.
Nocturnal polyuria, excessive nighttime urination, can be very disturbing to
sleep. Nocturnal polyuria can be nephrogenic (related to kidney disease) or it
may be due to prostate enlargement
or hormonal influences. Deficiencies in vasopressin, which is caused either by a
pituitary problem or by insensitivity of the kidney to the effects of
vasopressin, can lead to nocturnal polyuria. Excessive thirst or the use of
diuretics can also cause these symptoms.

Washington - Insomnia Comment
People suffering from insomnia should try to
tackle the problem and avoid taking sleeping tablets if possible, according
to the latest Treatment Notes, published by Which? today.
Up to one in seven adults regularly suffers from insomnia and many rely on
hypnotic drugs as a solution. The Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin information
advises that sleeping tablets do not work well in the long run and can cause
problems, including next-day hangover effects and dependence.

Washington - Insomnia Comment
Snoring solutions
In a survey by the British Snoring and Sleep Apnoea Association, 54% of
people have had their holidays adversely affected by snoring and 20% have
been banished to the bathroom because of the noise.
It is not only an embarrassment for sufferers but a test of endurance for
family and friends.
What is snoring?
Snoring affects around 3.5 million people in the UK. It is an anatomy
problem involving the soft tissue at the back of the throat and causes the
emission of sound from the airway during sleep.
What causes snoring?
Snoring occurs when the soft palate tissue at the back of the throat relaxes
too much, obstructing the entrance to the throat. As air tries to pass
through, the soft palate vibrates and produces the snoring sound.
The problem may get worse with age but one of the main causes is size and
body shape. People with short wide necks are most prone to snoring because
the muscles around their windpipe can't support the fat around it when the
person is asleep. As a general rule, anyone with a collar size of 16.5
inches or more is likely to snore.
