Lots of exercises. I took notes. Hopefully this covers the list effectively. Thanks, Dr. Mandell.... 1. Say AEIOU - stretched out changing pitch and tone….. 2. Push tongue into back of teeth and then curl it back into your hard pallet to strengthen tongue and throat muscles. 3. Push tongue up into hard pallet for 5-10 seconds, 5 reps. 4. Push tongue down into soft pallet for 5-10 seconds, 5 reps. 5. Breathe in through nose, and out of one nostril. Do both sides 15-20 times 6. Push tongue up into hard pallet and flick as you move your jaw down to make the ‘knocking’ sound. Do for 60 seconds. 7. Contract your uvula like you are gagging for 30-45 seconds. 8. Move jaw to right. Hold for 30 seconds. Do the same on the left. Do about 5 reps. Strengthen facial muscles and jaw. 9. Sing - great for throat muscles. 10. Curl your tongue. Hold for 10 seconds. Do 3 sets. 11. Stick tongue out and try and touch your nose. 10 seconds, 3 sets. Tones back of throat muscles. 12. Stick tongue out and push it into outer lip like you are trying to get something from the corner of your mouth. 10 seconds hold, 5 reps. 13. Take a spoon - push tongue into the spoon and hold for 10 seconds, 6 reps. 14. Drop weight! 15. Rid diet of excess sugar, do more exercise, more fiber, sleep on your left side or if on back use an incline
My doctor told me that I'll have to live with my CPAP machine for the rest of my life. Then I just got back to shape, shed 50 kilos (!), and voila, no more sleep apnea or snoring! Absolutely reduce your weight if you snore or have obstructive sleep apnea. It's worth it!
At my sleep apnea test, I was told to sleep on my back, but it didn't make sense when I'm a side sleeper so I was allowed to start off on my side. Less than a hour later the tester had me sleep on my back, first without CPAP and then with CPAP. My test results showed: 1) I did NOT have sleep apnea WHEN sleeping on my side, 2) I had sleep apnea when sleeping on my back, and 3) the CPAP machine prevented sleep apnea when sleeping on my back. Since I'm a side sleeper, it didn't make sense TO ME to go the CPAP route. AGAINST DR RECOMMENDATION, I put pillows behind me that prevent me from rolling on my back while sleeping and I no longer wake up with headaches! I've also lost 88lbs since then which no doubt also helps. I hope my experience helps you!
The two most important aspects of correcting sleep disordered breathing (aka snoring and sleep apnea) is fat loss and learning to maintain proper oral posture (tongue resting on palate, lips sealed, and nasal breathing). There were some good exercises here in training the tongue to help maintain the necessary muscle tone!
I have been suffering from snoring to the point that my little kids complained. They couldn’t sleep when we shared rooms at hotels on vacation. 😮 But I did not want to use a CPAC machine. You are Such a great person Wonderful warm Caring So personally invested And you give such practical advice on small things medical issues that no one else has ever talked about. But these little things matter and actually address big problems; all this knowledge matters; and they work. And I love your holistic approach. And I love your quotes. I am so thankful I found your channel. 😊
Dr. Mandell, you are the truth!!! I am supposed to pick up a pap machine next week, but I will be canceling it after seeing this video. I'm halfway there, I've lost 35 lbs, been off of sugar for 9 mont's and I do intermittent fasting. Now all I have to do are these exercises and I should be good!!! Thanks again for helping me on saving my life. ❤
Thanks doc, I had my husband watch this because he has obstructive sleep apnea. He even snores when he’s on his stomach. He is obese. Thank you for your suggestions. God Bless 🙏🏼
My husband truly needs this video and he’s now doing your exercises here. He is very fit, but snores loudly and needs to do these. And I’m doing these as you speak. WoW, they are great for those muscles! Thanks ❤❤❤
Thank you for your videos; this one in particular. I have been practicing your steps for a little while. I believe what you're saying. Life changes at 69 are difficult but, I like the way I have been looking and feeling now, for the past 10 months. I have huge tonsils and adenoids. When I was a child my mother allowed me to take a neighbor friend along with our family on a country outing. After two nights of that outing, my friend asked my mom if she could send her back home. She said she couldn't sleep because I snored loudly. I have always snored. I was a very thin child back then. Today, I'm 50 lbs. overweight. I have lost 18 lbs in the past 10 months. I still snore and, sometimes I get scared about going to sleep. I aspirate...SOMETIMES. My esophagus is faulty. I have to tell you, however, I keep on exercising and now, these new exercises will help me even more! Thanks again! 😊
Doctor Mandell, i would talk for a spell, but I don't have time 😊 I have my work cut out for me today ❤ I can't wait to do these exercises again ❤️ Love to you Doctor Mandell for your time toward each of us ❤️
Thank you. They were too many exercises to remember. I'm still very grateful for your messages. I praise the Lord for having you and your will to help us heal ourselves through your messages.
God bless you Dr. Mandel With all due respect, you have SO many great exercises I already am using, many for sleep, hair brushing, tapping my forehead, pinching my ankles, pinching my hand in the thumb indentation, on and on. I don’t realistically think I can keep track of, keep up with, a dozen daily exercises. You are a gem, a natural treasure, but any suggestions? All of your ideas are stellar? Maybe a book, that we could put post it tabs on the most helpful? Thankyou. ❤
I have been on a cpap for many years. When I started on the cpap, I was much younger and not overweight. Recently, I was in the hospital, and the pulmonologist told me I needed to be on a bipap machine. Thank you for these exercises.
Dr Mandell: I don't want to sound like an alarmist but as a 60 yr old whose never once experienced sleep apnea, I developed it after I began vaping marijuana. I would wake up on a regular basis in the night, gasping for air and I found it quite terrifying. It wasn't until I started wondering if there was a correlation between vaping and having developed apnea that I did a little experiment and STOPPED vaping and my suspicions proved true! My sleep apnea went away and I've never experienced this very scary condition again. I understand there are so many reasons people are afflicted w/this condition and I have a great deal of compassion for those who battle against this scary and often exhausting disorder.
You are a gift from god sent to many of us, a literal blessing to this planet. I wish you a long and a happy life. May it be filled with joy and there be no sorrows.
Just done this for the first time and omg I never realised my face had this many muscles 😂 I can really feel they've all had an amazing workout! Thanks so much
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU Dr Mandell! My son recently had a sleep study for snoring; one of the documented prolonged pauses was 2.58 minutes. He of course was recommended to go on CPAP, which he won't use because he can't stay asleep while hooked up. I will definitely forward this on to him.
Love this ! I have sleep apenia ,but donot use any thing . I will do these exercise dailey .thank you Dr Mandell ! You are such a blessing to me .God Bless you .
Please consider CPAP machine. That helped me to sleep properly and get massive energy boost of it, reduce blood pressure almost instantaneously, and therefore enable ne to start exercising, which in turn supported my very low carb diet to reduce first 30 kilos in 4 months, abs then another 20 kilos in few more months. Sleep apnea is the source of many real bad things happening in your body, a genuine vicious cycle. Once you break that cycle, your life will be transformed! Guaranteed!
I am happy with those excersices! I am using a cpap because I had around 20 breathing stops an hour ,having headaches and feeling terrible in the morning. After about half a year I started to get a lot of belly aches because I am getting air inside. Change in pressure isn't helping much till now and I just hate this machine and the feeling of it in my face and the whole idea of needing something like this! Going to do the excersices and loose weight! There is hope....! Thanks a lot!
I would love to exercise my uvula. But an ignorant ENT cut it out in 1998….to correct sleep apnea. In my ignorance, I let him. They didn’t tell me it was a little irrigation sprinkler that kept my throat moist. Had I known, I’d still have my uvula. It was a horrific experience that I would never recommend to anyone. If we had the internet back then with all the info available now, it would not have happened. In my sleep lab study, I stopped breathing 61x in 8 hrs. I was not overweight. I’ve had it since I weighed 95 lbs when I was 18 years old. I am going to try these exercises and see how it goes. THANK YOU Dr Mandel for more helpful knowledge!🙏🏼🥰
Thank you Dr Mandell. As one gets older it's important to keep these muscles strong. I'll give these a go and show them to my husband as well. Never know, I may be able to move back into the bedroom if I don't have to listen to the thunder of snoring. 🤣
You are right! I discovered some muscles that I never knew were ever there! And utilized muscles that I probably have never utilized before (as you said in the video 7:34 ) Thanks for this video!
Makes so much sense. So much food is soft so our muscles get weak. Also sleep aids relax those muscles and cause one to fall into apnea. Could you address that specifically in a future video? Ty Doc!
Great video as always, Doc! I'm about to be tested for sleep apnea as well. My doctor feels strongly that I may have it so I will definitely do the exercises from this video. I'm severely asthmatic and it's hard keeping weight off with all the steroids. Any suggestions for me/us please?
sleeping on your left side is so very good for us but with 2 people in one bed, 1 person most often ends up sleeping on their right, due to heat or just uncomfortable positioning, do you think we should alternate sides or switch to single beds?
My wife hates my snoring. So, I tried pushing my tongue against the hard palette for a good 10 seconds. She said I was supposed to push it against MY pallette, and now im sleeping on the couch... 😅
@@annjensen1980 Well I snore & do care about my other half not being able to sleep because of me. I’m sure I look a right idiot doing these exercises but I’ve just given it a go and will be again. Thanks so much Doc. Your videos are insightful, non patronising & they work!! Bless you mate 🤍

I did a 5 day salt water fast and by the second night my wife said I stopped snoring

Would you mind sharing your method and process for getting yourself off of sugar?
@Allenmarshall I just stopped using it and buying anything with sugar in it.

Any results?
I think it will help with double chin etc, great thank you will be doing everyday. Can’t wait to see my family’s reaction - I don’t care 😁
Thanks doc, I had my husband watch this because he has obstructive sleep apnea. He even snores when he’s on his stomach. He is obese. Thank you for your suggestions. God Bless 🙏🏼
