    Newswise - Several years ago, University of Michigan researchers
    published some of the strongest evidence yet that children who snore
    when they sleep are far more likely to have attention and hyperactivity
    problems than their non-snoring peers.

    If there is another cause for attention problems, it is not ADHD.

    out there with undiagnosed sleep disorders who have been misdiagnosed

    Exactly! Why, I often taste my coffee to check if I've sweetened it,
    I often forget if I have or haven't done so. Shocking, such risk

    in doubt. 😉
