Apnea Unmasked: Why Your Airway Collapses (No One Explains This)

Most people are told their airway collapses during sleep. But that explanation leaves out something important. In this episode of Apnea Unmasked, Dr. Doug explains why sleep apnea isn’t about willpower, and why the real issue often comes down to how the breathing system is regulated. When breathing chemistry becomes unstable, the nervous system reacts. And when the system stays on edge, sleep can’t fully settle. That’s why many people continue to struggle, even when they’re doing everything they’ve been told. This episode connects the dots between breathing patterns, CO₂ tolerance, and why the body can start to “overreact” during sleep. If you want to understand how breathing stability is built during the day, and why that changes what happens at night.
