Ep 48 | Mouth Taping Deep Dive | The Science, Why & How of Mouth Taping | Natural Remedies for Better Sleep
*CORRECTION: At 18:59, we start talking about nasal "turbicles". We say this word a lot. We get excited, and even question if "turbicles" is the right word, before agreeing that it's the right word, and carrying on. Future editing Karinda realises we in fact meant to say "nasal turbinates" - not turbicles. Turbicles aren't a thing. You're cordially invited to laugh at our mistake. You can suss out what these look like and their function hereIN THIS EP:We dive deep into the practice of mouth taping and its impressive benefits for sleep quality and overall health. We go through our personal experiences with mouth taping, different types of tapes, and address common concerns and misconceptions (we get it, it seems odd at first, or scary at most!). Let's explore the link between nasal breathing, nitric oxide production, and improved oxygenation and recovery, and how mouth taping can aid in reducing snoring and sleep apnea. As always, you'll get a mix of science, personal anecdotes, tidbits of advice and a good ole laugh.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Introduction and Casual Banter02:43 Health Benefits of Jamu06:45 Mouth Taping: An Unconventional Sleep Hack08:17 The Science Behind Mouth Taping13:14 Practical Tips and Personal Experiences25:27 Nose Breathing and Nitric Oxide25:59 Diaphragmatic Breathing and Vagus Nerve27:16 Turmeric and Vagus Nerve Activation27:38 Breathing Techniques for Calmness28:32 Nasal Breathing for Athletic Performance30:40 Mouth Taping Methods and Recommendations31:26 Mouth Taping Experiences and Tips35:00 Mouth Taping for Snoring and Sleep Apnea38:01 Glymphatic System and Sleep40:14 Mouth Taping Products and Environmental Considerations49:12 Final Thoughts and Listener Engagement~Reach out to the Nuanced Naturopaths here!
