Aussies losing sleep due to rising obesity
There is another worry which rooted from the problem of obesity. NSW sleep clinic has revealed its 20 years records analysis, revealing the truth of consistent rise in the weight of patients who go for sleep diagnosis. People who obese are also aggrandising , consequently further contribute to breathing related disorders. Dr Jeffery Pretto published that undergoing diagnostic sleep is the other factor that attribute to obesity. Both men and women gain weight after treatment. The research also affirmed that male and female patients suffered superfluous breathing difficulties 5.5% and 2.8% respectively. Even though the obesity level of Australia is close with US figure, it is well behind the rate in which obese patients who go for sleep diagnosis. Therefore, there will be higher demand for sleep laboratory services and treatment provision in Australia in the near future.

It is the obesity issue again. It seems to be a critical issue to be tackled urgently. This news reveals that sleep diagnosis is the factor that lead to increasing obesity. I believed that it is a truth especially under the pressurised and fast paced life. People are more tensed up, facing sleeping problems which in turn have to go for medication. These medication may have adverse effects. Among it may cause weight gain which creates this issue. Therefore, people should maintain an optimistic and cheerful mind so that they do not face sleeping disorder which may put them into obese category....haha
