3. Cardiac Arrhythmia
Snoring can cause a lack of oxygen that the body needs to maintain the proper functioning of major organs like the heart. An arrhythmia is a disruption in the normal rhythm of the heart, which can cause it to beat erratically. In many cases, an arrhythmia is not a significant risk to life, but in other cases, it can lead to permanent damage that can make life-threatening complications much more likely.
