10 Subtle Signs You’re Not as Healthy as You Think
Snoring
Some people are snoring occasionally, but for others, it’s present all night long – every night. Normal as it may seem, this can be a sign of sleep apnea. According to Yamamoto, this condition is ‘similar to being choked to death, only you don’t even wake up to know it’s happening. This causes a variety of problems, especially in terms of heart disease.’
Chronic neck pain
Watching TV, sitting at the desk, working on a computer – all these activities can lead to bad posture. In time, a hunched posture will cause ‘back and neck pain as well as tight muscle knots,’ as certified personal trainer Leon Turetsky explains.
You can place a post-it near your desk or even set a reminder on your smartphone to sit up straight. It might seem difficult at first, but it will inevitably become a habit if you stick to it.
