Sleep Apnea is a root level risk of over eating that you take. It is a disorder in the body, which does not let you sleep all night. Its not insomnia. Insomnia occurs due to mental stress or hyper active brain nerves. You do not have any physical ailment or uneasiness in this case. When one suffers from sleep apnea, a over eating disorder, it is accompanied by uneasiness in the body due to lack of breath in the body, a kind of suffocation. The air passage gets blocked thus interrupting the sleep cycle again and again. It so happens when the diaphragm is pushed upwards hence causing difficulty for the heart to pump blood. If the situation continues then the sleep problem can cause high blood pressure.

Respiratory Problems:

insulin and keeping the sugar level low. Over eating with diabetes in the body is like putting all body organs.

Compulsive Over Eating
