Sleep Apnea Raises Risk Of Low Blood Oxygen During Air Travel

Kudos, fatsos.

Not only do you pose a safety risk to the rest of us who fly, you need special oxygen supplementation while in the air.
"People who have obstructive sleep apnea are more likely to have low blood oxygen and experience higher physiological stress (which can raise heart risk) during air travel than people who do not suffer from the condition, suggesting they may need extra oxygen during flight, like patients with chronic lung diseases."
Lose the weight.
