I helped myself, surely it's not just me
Hi all, I actually made a video of how I fixed my sleep apnea and put it in a video. Surely i'm not the only one that uses this method? Shameless plug of my video following here, hopefully an interesting idea for you guys 😀 https://youtu.be/jtWHP2FRbf4
I will give it a try and post my experience here. Not sure why there aren't any responses to this simple method. This forum seems to have very few attendees?
I tried it last night. No effect on me. I don't think it can work in principle and the effect is purely psychosomatic (nothing wrong with that). The gurgled oiling wears off in 5-10 minutes.
Sorry that was the case for you Gleb. Guess it doesn't work for certain people. For me I use it to this day and it simply works. Good luck with your continued search and hopefully you find something that will resolve your sleep apnea because it really is a really awful condition 🙁
Tha is for the response Lori. In answer to your question, at the time I didn't speak to my doctor as it didn't even cross my mind. I just sat down and thought of a resolution because at the time I thought using a giant sleep apnea machine was the only solution and I didn't want to do that. Olive oil was my solution just on the basis of thinking well, an engine need lubrication the whole time or it seizes up, and, the solution has to be ingestable. This lead me to the natural conclusion of olive oil. 2 years down the line I am proof of concept that it works thus far so I shall stick to it. 😀. Good to know there are other solutions that you mentioned. I shall stick with what I know though as it works for me. Love, peace and healing to all.
I echo Lori's advice to speak with a sleep doctor. I might be mistaken, but since there is no feasible connection between lubricating throat and ameliorating OSA, there is a chance that your condition was misdiagnosed.
Requesting explanation and study of the causal connection can also lead to more effective solution that might no longer require daily gurgling of olive oil.What works for me works for me. thanks.
What a simple, easy and clever solution,
, and how cool that it works for you! Thanks for creating and sharing the video. (No worries about sharing it since you have no advertising and you stress that you are not offering medical advice.) There are several different types and causes of sleep apnea, so what works for one person might not be effective for another, but it must be such a relief for you. How long have you been gargling with olive oil before bed? Of all the things you could have tried to lubricate your throat (throat lozengers, dry mouth melts, etc.), what made you try olive oil? Have you talked with your doctor about this technique? I hope it continues to be effective and that you are now getting some high quality sleep. Best wishes. - Lori (Team Member)
