A Natural Solution to Sleep Apnea
According to a National Institutes of Health study, most
people believe that sleep apnea is caused by a sagging soft pallet or by some
other obstructive tissue in the throat. Actually, it’s the result of a
diminishing signal from the brain to the diaphragm (causing one to breathe)
that can occur during the transition from initial semi-wakefulness into the
next stage of lighter sleep prior to REM sleep. In some people, the unintended
reduction in the signal is significant enough that breathing goes beyond being
shallow and completely stops.
After a short period of time, the brain, realizing the
need to breathe, forces a rapid inhalation to restart respiration that
literally drags the sagging localized soft tissues into the airway, as reported
in Sleep Apnea: A New Approach to an Emergent Problem by Master
Herbalist Steven Frank, of Nature’s Rite. For some, there’s no indication of
potential problems when they are awake as the tissues remain in their normal
state and the throat doesn’t close off during the day or when relaxing or
resting, but then they can experience an obstruction problem when trying to go
to sleep.
Instead of resorting to surgery to remove neck tissue or
using a machine to force air into lungs, try a natural, herbal solution that
has been used for thousands of years. Lobelia acts as a respiratory stimulant
and maintains deep, steady breathing through the stage 2 sleep period. Thyme
improves the ability of the lungs to exchanges CO2 for oxygen. While Chamomile
and Cramp Bark helps the upper trapezius muscles to relax supporting better
nerve transmission.
