Golf is nothing! I'm growing hair on the crown of my head where I haven't had hair in 5-6 years. The hair is still very thin up there, but it is there!

However it would be an excellent carrot for those who need to use their cpap and need some extra encouragement "Your golf game will improve!!!!"

I swear that my hair is less grey after almost 2 months on my cpap.

Growth hormones produced during deep wave sleep could be responsible for the new hair growth.

Here's a good article from the NLM.

My boss noticed my memory and reasoning jumped a few notches.
My husband noticed my disposition improved considerably.
I was aware that I have been enjoying life more.
--and have a bit more ambition.
