I recently tested the Eight Sleep Pod mattress with the Sleep Tracker purchased from Amazon. I was excited to try it, having reviewed and researched other sleep tech appliances. The mattress comes rolled up tight in a box and takes about four hours to get to full expansion. It weighs around 75lbs, so you may need an…
Allergy symptoms can have a dramatic impact on our quality of life. Unfortunately, our homes are not a safe retreat from allergen exposure, as indoor allergies are also a cause of snoring and other sleep problems.

What happens, though, is that the muscles in your throat relax too, and their resting position can often block the path from your mouth/nose down to your lungs. Mouthpieces were designed to address this problem. There are two primary styles of anti-snoring mouthpieces…
Since the TheraSnore has an upper and lower tray, which can be separated, and a lingual post as part of the lower tray, it is more complicated to clean. The TheraSnore can deteriorate, corrode, or even grow mold due to the nightly saliva, so it is best to keep a routine of cleaning the device….
