Eating fruits and vegetables is not typically good medical advice when we’re talking about acute issues.
Advice for a healthier lifestyle, more energy, longevity, etc? Yes of course. Advice for sleep apnea that’s already set in and affecting a patient nightly? Not at all.
- kevviiinn 4y agoI wasn't aware that sleep apnea is an acute issue, I could have sworn that's chronic
- rco8786 4y agoI am not a doctor so it’s entirely possible I am misusing a term here. But afaik chronic is something that cannot be cured. This is not the case with sleep apnea. It just can’t be cured with vegetables.
- kevviiinn 4y agoA condition is described as acute when the onset is sudden and duration is short, a condition is chronic when it persists over a long period of time. It has nothing to do with curability One of the major causes of sleep apnea is being overweight, so it can definitely be helped with a change in activity levels a diet modification https://medlineplus.gov/ency/imagepages/18126.htm https://medlineplus.gov/ency/imagepages/18126.htm
