Snoring is something many of us brush off — a quirky sleep habit, a funny annoyance, or maybe just a sign of deep rest. But what if it’s something more serious? What if habitual snoring is a red flag for a deeper health issue that could increase your risk of developing serious diseases, including lung cancer?

In today’s episode, I dive into one of the most overlooked connections in sleep medicine: how chronic snoring and obstructive sleep apnea may play a role in the development of cancer — especially lung cancer. Backed by recent peer-reviewed studies, this episode explores the science, the warning signs, and what you can do to protect your long-term health.

As a registered nurse and sleep educator, I’m here to break down the science into simple, actionable information. You’ll learn how sleep-disordered breathing — especially when it leads to intermittent hypoxia (repeated drops in blood oxygen levels during sleep) — can create inflammation in the body, damage tissues, and even alter the environment in your lungs. These changes may contribute to a higher risk of certain cancers, especially if left untreated.
