I started mouth-taping around April, and now I tape my mouth probably 3-4x a week, having successfully trained myself to sleep with my mouth closed. This change in breathing has carried over into the daytime and has helped make mask-wearing for COVID much more comfortable. His assessments are pretty accurate with my own. I highly suggest people give it a try. The first couple nights may suck, and you may not wear it for the entire night, but eventually your nose adapts. I'm breathing better through my nose than ever, and I've had nasal problems my whole life.

breathing though your nose during the day is *quite* important. There are quite a few people who also breath through their mouth which will lead to a bunch of negative side effects.

To mention a few; Importance of Nitric Oxide, negative Effect of Low Tongue Position, Postural Problems ...

Ali, I am a long time fan. The dentist in me says: While awake, it is perfectly normal for your teeth to be disengaged (Check out Vertical dimension of rest) yet your lips are supposed to remain competent (closed enough to allow for adequate nasal breathing). If not, the first step is to check with an ENT specialist to rule out Nasopharyngeal anatomical challenges or pathologies. As a patient of sleep disorders: I am glad that are diving into this issue to raise awareness about the quality of breathing during sleep. Totally relatable. Wish you all the best.

As someone with mild sleep apnea, and many years of being blocked up, I found using hayfever nasal spray and nasal strips worked to open up your nostrils over time. Add in working out, as you should always breath through your nose, you end up learning to breath through your nose naturally. Sleep has improved over the last 4 years doing this, which I track via my fitbit but can feel the improvement too

After listening to a couple podcasts/videos with James Nestor a couple years ago, I started my nighttime nose breathing routine using blue painter’s tape. Small vertical strip from a 1” roll works great. Sticky enough that it rarely comes off during the night and has caused no skin issues. The vertical orientation leaves little gaps at edges of the mouth if I need to talk through the tape. Wife thinks I’m bonkers, but it really prevents nighttime dry mouth. Also trying to focus on nose breathing when I exercise. Have used the same taping routine a couple of times for that, but it’s not something I’ve done regularly. Considering trying that again.

Great video! This actually solved my sleep apnea and that of people I know. One friend had cardiac arrhythmia that completely went into remission just with the tape trick. The thing is you don't actually have to buy those "sleep specific" tapes. There are many medical tapes out there that are breathable and 1/5th the cost.

@juanitabullock4342 2 года назад

I use large bandaids to keep my mouth closed at night. It’s cheaper and works as well. Have not had any rash or irritation around of my mouth or skin.

@peremanresa5308 3 года назад

Ali, I would recommend you to read “Breath” by James Nestor. It encompasses the theory and practice of nose vs mouth breathing. It’s quite a remarkable read!

@vince7245 3 года назад

Awesome book. And he suggests using a stamp sized piece of cloth tape, which is what I do as well. Personally, I wouldn't waste money on those strips.

@elissasteel4395 2 года назад

The taping while asleep is pretty legit, I first heard about in some interviews and podcasts with James Nestor who really has studied the benefits of nose breathing for a long time. This video of Ali definetely reminded me and encourages me to try it out

@@melius7251 Yes I did. W/o tape my mouth is always dry when I wake up, and I wake up more frequently during the night. With tape the mouth is not dry in the morning, also the quality of sleep is better. I feel fresher in the morning, when I'm using it.

i’ve been mouth taping for 3 years. i can’t sleep without taping now. i only use a tiny strip of tape from below my nose to my chin. does the trick & feels less constricted than taping the entire mouth.

@ferchi4567 10 месяцев назад

I love how unbiased this video is. /s Data showing complete opposite of what you want to show so you just make up reasons how this is not accurate and everything. If the data showed what you wanted you would have 100% used it to "prove" that the mouth shutting works.

Not breathing with your mouth also helps with strengthening and having a more defined jawline. Have you heard of Mewing? I've been doing it for a year or two and has been changing my jaw structure.

Check out a product called “Intake Breathing”. It uses magnets you tape to your nose, and connects to a plastic piece you put over the bridge of your nose with another set of magnets in it. It helps keep your nose open wider. Great combo of taping your mouth and using tools to assist your nose.

Ali, not at all sure whether you'll pick this message up almost a year after the posted video, but I'm intrigued to know if you are still using this product. It is only available in America though it does appear to ship to the UK. There are UK versions of this and I wonder whether you gave those a try? Or was this the one that came up tops in your research? Kindest, Neale

@stillapieceofgarbage7574 3 года назад

There also is evidence that the shape of your face changes depending on whether you're a mouth or a nose breather! Like your cheekbones, jawline and eyes will develop a lot better and look more prominent when you have your mouth closed most of the time! It would be interesting if you would keep it up and update on that as well!! :) Great and helpful video as always! Thank you!!

@mrmartinez4188 9 месяцев назад

I’ve been doing this about a month. And I do have sleep apnea but I believe it’s helping me, even though I wear a mouthguard. I don’t wake up with any more headaches, I don’t wake up with dry mouth or terrible morning breath The real test is to check to see if my apnea is better. I have my mouthguard adjusted and I am going to follow up with our apnea home test. That will indicate if my apnea is better, but overall I do wake up more refreshed, no bad breath and No morning headaches
