CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) therapy helps treat sleep apnea by keeping airways open. Proper nutrition supports CPAP therapy by maintaining a healthy weight, as excess weight can worsen sleep apnea. A balanced diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods like omega-3s, fruits, and vegetables may reduce inflammation and improve sleep quality. Avoiding heavy meals, caffeine, and alcohol before bedtime can prevent disruptions to sleep. Staying hydrated helps prevent dryness caused by the CPAP machine, while nutrients like magnesium and vitamin D support muscle function. A healthy diet alongside CPAP therapy can improve overall well-being and enhance sleep quality.
