Mouth Breathing and It's Health Risks
Breathing is a fundamental part of life, yet how we breathe can significantly impact our overall well-being. In this episode of the Everyday Epigenetics podcast, I dive into the issue of mouth breathing- its causes and symptoms, plus ways to remedy, such as mouth taping at night. This episode takes you on my personal journey with mouth taping—a seemingly unconventional yet profoundly effective technique to address chronic mouth breathing. From battling restless nights to enhancing athletic performance, I share my candid experiences and the science behind this practice, revealing how it can alleviate a range of health issues from dry mouth to fatigue, and even improve your mental clarity and quality of life.
I highlight the significant benefits of nose breathing, and bring light on the surprising causes and consequences of mouth breathing. I also am giving a step-by-step guide to finding the right mouth tape for your needs. Whether you're struggling with sleep apnea, snoring, or just curious about the potential benefits of this simple practice, this episode is packed with valuable tips and real-life recommendations to help you breathe better and live better.
In this episode:
- My first hand experience using mouth tape and the different types I’ve tested, and I demonstrate the differences along with proper application
