Breathe-Rite has worked for me
by degsme

Breathe-Rite has worked for me for some 3 years now - and at my worst I was diagnosed with borderline sleep apnea.

It is more than just "scotch tape on your nose" - there is a strong plastic stiffener under the sticky tape. But since the nose is often one of the oiliest parts of the face, I find I have to use an astringent or wash my face with soap and thoroughly dry it before application - otherwise it fails exactly as described.

I AM confused. I saw the ring product in boots (£29.99) and a load of products on the Internet. I've piled through the forums. the Idea that seems most logical is from this site ------------------------------­------------------ <link> ------------------------------­------------------------ THIS IS THE SUMMARY OF WHAT THEY SAY (THIS IS WHAT THEY CLAIM, I havn't tried their idea yet, so i can't say whether their claims are true) There are only three stop snoring treatments that work for most snorers - do not be misled by anyone who tells you anything to the contrary: 1. Mandibular (jaw) advancement devices l 2. CPAP (Continuous Positive Air Pressure mask and air pump, which can only be prescribed by a doctor) and 3. Surgery, which can be painful and has a lower success rate than mandibular advancement - although it is still more likely to work than treatments listed in the treatments that don’t work section. Snoring treatments that don’t work We speak to large numbers of snorers. They tell us that the following treatments do not work: * stop snoring tablets, * aromatherapy, * hypnosis, * willpower training, * wrist devices, rings, * devices that counteract the snoring noise, and * devices that flash a bright light when you snore. * Sports gumshields or mouthguards - these look like mandibular advancement splints, but they will not stop you snoring as they do not provide sufficient support behind the front teeth (particularly the lower teeth) to hold the jaw forward. Furthermore, as the bulk of a sports gumshield is at the front of the mouthpiece (to absorb and spread an impact), they can feel very bulky and uncomfortable when worn for more than a couple of hours or overnight. Mandibular advancement splints and sports gum shields are not the same things. * Tongue retention devices have been reported as being too uncomfortable. In our opinion, the following stop snoring options do not work or are best used in conjunction with one of the three treatment options that do work: * sprays - people tell us that stop snoring sprays either do not work, or they only work for a short period before the effects wear off (saliva washes away the spray) and they are expensive if you need to keep buying more spray. * Nasal strips make it easier to breathe through your nose, they don’t stop you snoring. Don’t be misled by claims to the contrary. * Anything that forces you to breathe through your nose is useless when you have a cold, or allergies that give you a blocked nose. They will make you feel like you are being strangled. * Posture can play an important role in snoring, but is not a solution in itself. ------------------------------­------------------------------ THIS IS WHAT I'M GOING TO DO:- IM GOING TO PURCHASE THEIRE SNORE 1 PRODUCT. THIS IS MY REASONING. MY SNORING SEEMS TO BE IN THE MOUTH/THROAT. IF I TRY TO CONCIOUSLY REPLICATE MY SNORE THEN STICK MY BOTTOM JAW FORWARD THEN THE SNORING GOES AWAY. So their "right" seems to be my "right" as well....Im going to give it ago....Hopefully my email will automatically inform me of further postings to this thread (as i don't have time to keep checking) maybe somebody else will trial it as well!!!

I have snored brutally for a few years now. No product has worked consistently, although Breathe-Right has come closest. I found that precise placement on the nose per the instructions is fundamental to it working or not. Miss by a millimeter and it is useless.

About six months ago, I discovered a near total (95%) cure.

I lost 15 pounds. The snoring stopped.

That worked for me too

Losing weight also makes a big difference

I posted the above on a fer different forums a few days ago.

Just to say that the plastic mouth piece arrived yesterday. I haven't tried it yet, so u can't comment on it's effectiveness.

My email informs me of replies to postings.

There is a posting on <link>

mentions a little finger ring product at www.stopsnorering.com at a much lower price that the one that i saw for £29.99

The question is, does it work, is it any good??

Cheaper doesn't mean that it's worth buying?

has anybody used this ring product?

Before i waste my money (again)
