Adkins Snoring Aid

Just as there are many different reasons people snore, so there are many different snoring cures to buy. A British company has just released a new one called the Adkins Snoring Aid.

Whereas as many snoring remedies on the market try to increase the flow of air through the nostrils, the Adkins Snoring Aid takes the opposite approach: it reduces the flow. Apparently this can help reduce snoring in those people the company describe as "nose snorers". The new product essentially consists of a pair of joined latex balls made from medical grade materials and is available to buy in different sizes to fit different people.

According to sleep deprivation expert Chris Grant, the man behind the product:

"The restricted airflow through the nose encourages mouth breathing which reduces the incidence of snoring in those whose snoring is caused by excess airflow across the soft tissues at the back of the nose."

Note: According to Adkins, this product "is not suitable for those under 18 years of age and those that suffer with nose bleeds, asthma, epilepsy, while suffering a cold, flu or Sleep Apnoea".
