People say it’s obesity is most cases. I think that’s wrong.
The obesity is exacerbating a structural issue. Most Americans have narrow jaws, and underdeveloped facial bone structure. It goes back to diet.

Obstructive sleep apnea is up to 4 times more common among men and 7 times more common among people who are obese (ie, body mass index [BMI] > 30).

I think obese patients have more severe cases, and are more likely to be diagnosed with apnea. But I believe the majority of adult men have apnea.
