...if you snore, there is about a 99.9% chance you have Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and its terrible for your heart and your health. This following is NOT medical advice...just the opinion of a guy who puts people to sleep for a living and observes that, if they snore, nearly 100% go from snoring to obstructive apnea with desaturation. They do this in the best position they can be in to not obstruct. Most have never been diagnosed with a sleep study. Plenty didn't have a clue that they even snore to begin with. If you snore, you are likely getting plenty of shitty sleep and very little to no good sleep that is necessary for long term health and for feeling worth a damn on a day to day basis.

I can relieve airway obstruction during sleep/sedation and get nearly 100% of those that obstruct breathing smoothly and quietly with one finger and very little effort by simply sliding my hand under the side of the face that's in the pillow and putting light forward pressure at the angle of the jaw; simply moving the jaw forward as if I'm making them "mew" (ask a young kid what that is if you don't know) opens all but the very most abnormal airways.

Obesity is a HUGE contributing factor to OSA. I snore when I hit about 212 lbs, and I have been over that threshold for a long time now, It would be best to lose the weight, but I have not been able to do that and stay there for quite a few years. CPAPs work well...for those it works well for. I tried it, and I just was never able to keep one on throughout the night.

Knowing what I know about gentle jaw manipulation opening the airway, I looked for something that would hold my lower jaw forward during sleep. I settled on SnoreRx plus. It works. After two nights of hating the slight discomfort and taking it out, the third night I fell asleep with it and kept it in all night...and I woke up thinking, "hey, I remember feeling like this when I'd wake up when I was young and didn't know to appreciate it!"

Now, If I can't find it or I leave it home on an overnight trip, my obstructive apnea/snoring wakes me up over and over and over for hours until I'm finally exhausted enough to get to "sleep" deep enough to not realize I'm "sleeping" miserably and I wake up feeling like shit. That stupid little plastic mouthpiece is one of the most important possessions I own, and if you snore, I highly, highly recommend getting one and using it, because it will change your life regarding the way you feel day to day, and it will most certainly extend your life all other health variables being equal.

If you can't tolerate CPAP or if you can tolerate it but hate that you have to...its well worth the 99.00 to see if this will work for you.
