I am 72, BMI 32 and struggling to lose weight, and I am being treated for sleep apnea at Mayo Clinic Jacksonville. Despite 2 sleep studies we can’t seem to get a CPAP device or settings that I can tolerate. I have an appointment with my Mayo Clinic pulmonologist 10/19/2020. I want to ask my doctor about the research being done on nasal breathing exercises and therapy for sleep apnea. What scientific references can I give him that will quickly introduce this approach to him? I want to respect his time and give him information that will expedite his study of this. Thank you!
