Snoring 'can raise cancer risk five-fold'

[Uben]

9. Wife had bad snoring problem, died in February

She always had irregular breathing at night, had a horrible snoring problem. She tried to get it fixed with nasal and throat surgery, and it helped a little, but she still snored till the end, and she never did breathe right during sleep. I wondered if the lack of oxygen would cause problems, and it appears it may have been her downfall. She died when her breast cancer returned after ten yrs.

My dad snored loudly, too. Died of cancer at age 63. Fortunately, I do not snore much....or so I'm told.
