Correlation is not causation.

I’ll bet it is fat people who both have sleep apnea and get cancer.

They can sure s-t-r-e-t-c-h a “correlation study” to encompass so many other groups of people with scare tactics, it’s almost criminal how much alarm and fright they generate.

One has always to ask, “To what financial end-gain are they doing this?” Someone or some group always benefits from these trash-study tactics.

The correlation usually proves unrelated, unreliable and total BS over time, if true scientific methodology is applied; something they neglect to do in the first place.

I’ll take that bet Miltie! I’ve run three marathons, seven half-marathons, countless 10k’s and 5k’s and am an active practitioner of Combat Hapkido and I have sleep apnea.

I know other physically fit individuals with the same problem.

Make peace with yuor C-Pap machines people. They’ll do you good.

Correlation is not causation.

Correlation indicates the presence of a physical law ...

Find it.

It also depends on the type of sleep apnea. There is the obstructive sleep apnea, and there is the type where your brain stops sending the signal to breathe. I happen to have both, and the c-pap machines don’t help because I can’t sleep with the blasted thing on me....
