    Thank you for this. My husband & I both suffer from OSA. I have hypothyroidism & we both are diabetic/overweight. This makes me realize it's time for us both to get a checkup since it's been awhile that we've seen our sleep doctor. This was very helpful. God bless.

    I resolved my obstructive sleep apnea by diet change.
    Reduced my omega-6 fat intake significantly, eliminated most sugar, and fast 16-20 hours a day.
    Inflammation went down all over my body, includingy sinuses.
    With clear sinuses, I breath through my nose, even when I obstruct.
    These changes also eliminated near all my allergies, as well as arthritis and chronic pain. After 2 years, it has nearly eliminated my asthma and I no longer need medication.
    This drastic improvement in sleep quality, fixed my minor ED issues, and eliminated my bipolar and depression issues.
    I do sometimes use a nose strip to help, especially if I have a little stuffy nose, or eat things I shouldn't.
    BMI 27
    Neck 42cm
    No CPAP or BiPAP needed for me.

      Nice, I have found similar results as you through diet change. Look into bioflavonoids too. I found lemon bioflavonoids opened my sinuses and made breathing so much easier.

      I mostly eat:
      • Red Meat
      • Lean poultry/fish/pork
      • Vegetables
      • Cheeses
      • Occasional Rice or whole oats, but not a staple.
      • Bread on sandwiches or burgers
      Occasional potatoes
      • Limited fruit, some berries on occasion.
      I cook with
      • clarified butter
      • beef tallow
      • coconut oil (for my no cow friends)
      If I need a liquid oil, I use a quality olive oil I know is not adultered.
      I never eat:
      • vegetable oils
      • Dressings or sauces with vegetable oils
      • Fried foods unless I fry it at home in clarified butter or beef tallow.
      I very rarely eat processed foods, but sometimes I miss a good chip, and don't always feel like making them myself.
      For ruminant animals(cow, deer, goat etc) I eat any cut, preferably fatty. If poultry or pork, I try to have lean cuts, due to their tendency to concentrate Polyunsaturated fats from their diets, unless they are fed a natural diet, low in PUFA.

      @@ShaGemDropper on most days I'm definitely not eating a keto diet.
      The only reason I hit ketosis is that most days I do a 16-20 hour fasting window.
      On many days I eat enough carbs I wouldn't hit ketosis without being fasted, or excercising.
      For example.
      Today I did not eat breakfast.
      I ate a late lunch around 1:00 p.m.of sweet potatoes, vegetables, and turkey.
      I ate dinner of 2 cheese pizza slices, along with 5 all beef hot dogs, around 7:00 p.m. (hanging out with friends tonight)
      I won't eat again till tomorrow evening probably.

    I have OSA and stopped breathing 36 times an hour. I lost a lot of weight and I was checked and now I stop breathing 11 times an hour. So I am borderline. I couldn't get on with the mask you have to wear.

    Apps like Sleep Cycle that record your snoring episodes can be really helpful in the absence of a significant other to witness them. That’s how I found out I am having hypopnias

    Deep or REM sleep? So if you don't sleep well, then it can't be it.
