Housecall for Health: Singing to Stop Snoring

It can be more than just a problem getting sleep, but a problem for relationships and marriages.  Snoring problems plague thousands of Americans, but a new study has found ways to tame the nightly noise.

FOX’s Colleen Cappon has some of those tips in today’s “Housecall for Health”:

Getting enough rest is hard enough without being disrupted by sawing logs.  Half of Americans have a snoring problem, but according to the Sleep Center at the University of Kentucky, there are ways to stop.

-Skipping out on alcohol before bed prevents airway muscles from being too relaxed.

-Losing weight reduces the amount of suction you need to inhale.

-And taking up singing helps firm up flabby throat muscles, which also leads to less snoring.

    I am a patient who suffers from mild to moderate sleep apnea for many years. Due to my snoring problems, my wife had to move to another room to be able to sleep, as she has to wake up very early. Visiting the office of the orthodontist of my sun, I saw the leaflets of an intraoral device for the treatment of sleep apnea and snoring. I talked with the orthodontist about my problems and started the treatment with Orthoapnea. Now my wife and I, we can sleep together again. During the day I feel relaxed at work and indeed it Orthoapnea solved my marriage. Therefore I can only recommend Orthoapnea to all those that have the same problems that I had.
