		<description><![CDATA[A Swedish study reveals that children who grow up in a large family or who are exposed to animals often have respiratory or ear infections in early life are more likely to develop into snorers in later life.

Snoring is not just a potential annoyance. In some cases, it can be a sign of a potentially fatal respiratory condition known as obstructive sleep apnea which causes a narrowing or collapse of the throat during sleep, and as a result, can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke, lead to memory loss, depression, diabetes, among other health issues.<div class="addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style " addthis:url='http://awakeinamerica.info/2008/top-news/study-shows-children-with-pets-may-snore-as-adults/' addthis:title='Study provides clues into why some children develop into adult snorers '  ><a class="addthis_button_facebook_like" fb:like:layout="button_count"></a><a class="addthis_button_tweet"></a><a class="addthis_counter addthis_pill_style"></a></div>]]></description>
