Re: Eating before bed and ahi

Some people find they do sleep more deeply and soundly with a little bit of carbohydrate before bed. That may help you relax and use CPAP more effectively.

Re: sanitizer machines

Frequent "colds" and recurrent upper respiratory infection are often linked to ALLERGIES. At least that was the fact in my case. One 10 mg.

Re: sanitizer machines

I'm not going to preach...but $250 would buy a ton of filters and distilled water. Guess I'll stick with the "old fashioned" way...although I DO love stuff with buttons to press. And lights. Gotta have lights. Aside from my response about the myth of immune-strengthening supplements, I have a quest...
