According to research, being a heavy snorer can increase one's risk of cancer five-fold, the Daily Telegraph reported.
Snoring and other types of "sleep disordered breathing" can deprive the body of sufficient oxygen for hours at a time.
Scientists now believe that having low blood oxygen levels can trigger the development of cancerous tumors by promoting the growth of the vessels that feed them.
They say in future doctors could help people fight the disease by stopping them snoring.
