You probably know at least one person who snores. No matter your spouse, friend, relative or parents, snoring is probably present in your life, but you dismiss it as a trivial problem. People make fun of it and may treat it as insignificant, but snoring could be diagnosed as a major health problem. The human tissue in our trachea and lungs loosen as we age, therefore snoring occurs more frequently and with a greater magnitude (louder) with time. When the problem goes out of control, snorers may sound like loud motorbikes or chainsaws (literally!). So, the sooner you stop snoring, the better!

You’ve heard of celebrities undergoing Gastric Bypass, but do you know what it really is? From what I learned from 10facts.com, Gastric bypass is a form of procedure to reduce weight. It changes the entire anatomy of the digestive system and is done to promote loss of weight for people who are overweight. In fact, the stomach pouch is reduced to the size of a small egg and portions of the small intestine are bypassed in a gastric bypass surgery. It works this way: the food never enters the lower part of the stomach but goes to the duodenum and yet the stomach usually stays healthy and produces gastric juices.
