Could you be overbreathing?
There is a new theory that has emerged over the last few decades which assesses the intake of carbon dioxide and oxygen that you take into the body.  If Carbon Dioxide levels fall too low due to a person overbreathing this could cause problems from Asthma to sinus issues to sleep apnoea.  While traditional medical treatment for these type of conditions includes treatment of the symptons such as inhalers and steroids.  A simple course in breathing correctly could resolve the symptons and treat the whole body.  One organisation, the Buteyco Institute offers courses that have been developed over years can assist their clients to understand how to manage their conditions and treat the causes.
