SNORING AND SLEEP APNEA



Our message to snorers

Snoring affects around 20% of the population, and sleep apnea 4%. The proportion of men is higher, but women are not spared this problem. We spend a large part of our lives sleeping, so it's important that our sleep is of good quality. For many years now, we've been passionate about this field, and we've been using our knowledge and relationships with leading sleep medicine specialists to create the best products against snoring and apnea. Our snoring and sleep apnea pages will provide you with useful information and solutions. We welcome your questions and comments. It's your opinion that counts, and helps us to develop our products further.

Main causes of snoring and sleep apnea

Generally speaking, during sleep, the weakening of throat muscle tone and the receding of the back of the tonguereduce the opening for air to pass through. This causes turbulence, leading to vibration of the soft palate and pharynx, the source of snoring. In addition to annoying others, snoring can progress to more severe airflow obstruction, characterized by breathing pauses of varying intensity. This more serious pathology, known as sleep apnea, warrants medical consultation.

Main factors aggravating snoring

- Being overweight
- Drinkingalcohol in the evening
- Smoking, sleeping pills and tranquilizers
- Sleeping on your back
- Severe fatigue
- Dry nasal mucosa, deviated nasal septum
