HEALTH: Loud, Persistent Snoring in Toddlers May Be Cause for Alarm. “Aside from being a nocturnal annoyance, a new study confirms, snoring in young kids can have implications for their behavior later on. Previous research has shown that poor sleep quality in children, including snoring, is linked to hyperactivity. However, little is known about ‘how much’ snoring is too much, and whether the behavioral effects last over time.”

I’m not a toddler, but I recently started using a steroid nose spray for allergies — Knoxville being America’s allergy capital — and not only stopped snoring, but I’ve noticed that I feel a lot more rested when I wake up. Not clear that my behavior has improved, though.
