Interesting. Wonder what effect CPAP has on telomere length? Could losing weight and controlling apnea make us young again? Sign me up for that program!

Most morbidly obese have OSA. I wonder if it made CPAP work better?! I wonder if they looked into how much OSA was occuring as the weight dropped?

Perhaps we are looking at the results of treating OSA ya never know.
