As well as not doing enough of certain things that are beneficialto your body and life.

When the bad out-weights the good you get in trouble. The best way to explain this is to show someexample days…. One being the bad day causing problems and the other being the good day that makesyou better if followed daily.

Example diary entry of a normal bad day causing sleep apnea to worsen:

Wake up - Didn’t eat breakfast8:00am - Drove to coffee shop got pastry and espresso

9:00am - Got to work and sit down and drink coffee with lots of regular sugar and a pastry and eat a candybar from vending machine and a doughnut from the break room12:00 noon - Eat at fast food with lots of regular salt cause lunch wasn’t long enough or planned out goodenough12;30 - Decided to go back and sit and watch a video or two cause your too tired to do anything else1:00pm - Sitting and working no walking or stretching or exercise2:00pm - Get a soda and coffee with lots of sugar or energy drink to wake up3:00pm - Get another candy bar and chips to snack on until dinner

5:00pm - Drive home and go straight outside to smoke a cigarette and make a alcoholic drink6:00pm - Eat dinner of pizza ordered in as too tired to cook and had not gone shopping yet.8:00pm – Watch a movie or TV and drink a few more beers or alcoholic drinks9:00pm - Eat During TV11:00pm - Eat after watching TV or late night snack and go to bed

Example diary entry of a normal good day of beneficial things to help heal sleep apnea:

Wake up - Eat breakfast with foods that nourish your body as well as taking minerals and vitamins to helpbody heal even faster. Such as plain greek yogurt with macadamia nuts, plain hemp hearts, flax seeds,granola, oats, cranberries, and real grade A or B maple syrup to sweeten.8:00am - Take healthy drink to work such as water or kombucha and eat live raw vegetables with a littledressing to dip.9:00am - Got to work skip eating the gluten and trans fat doughnuts or sugary pastries at coffee house12:00 noon - Planned lunch the night before and is all foods that heal like fermented kimchi or sauerkrautwith hamburger meat without a gluten wheat bun and eat with raw onions, pickles, tomatoes and lettuceand ave a side of coleslaw or chicken with steamed kale and broccoli and light sauce without gluten or a lotof preservatives. Season with pink Himalayan or sea salt never regular table salt

12;30 - Go for a walk in nature and soak up some sun and clear your mind instead of sitting and watchinga video on the rest of lunch break1:00pm - Stand up and walk around and detox your body and stretch and do light exercise by your workspace2:00pm - Get a water or tea possibly coffee with no cream or sugar and do a 5 min meditation to revivemind and body3:00pm - Eat on nuts or celery with almond butter and dried cranberries or gluten free granola in plainyogurt with real maple syrup until dinner

5:00pm - Drive to store and get fresh vegetables and fruits and drinks for the night and the next day6:00pm - Go home and make dinner that is 80% steamed or raw vegetables or blended green leafyvegetables poured over meat or gluten free pasta.8:00pm – Go out and exercise by walking or working out9:00pm - Come home and wind down and read a book and don’t look at a computer screen or tv screen ormobile device. Sip on chamomile tea11:00pm - Meditate and breath and just relax and envision how you want to sleep and the next day.

As you can see the days are drastically different than each other but can be done in the same time that youcould be poisoning yourself daily. The more you write down days like this the better. Also it’s very importantto track how you slept that night.

Soon you can start pinpointing the habit or foods that is causing your body to not get what it needs. This iswhat is causing the malfunction to occur during sleep. Yes this may take a while but who cares it needs tobe done slowly. You will find it sooner than you think.

The main point to see is the core of the problem is something negative or possibly a particular habit orroutine that is done daily that is causing a body mineral and vitamin deficiency.

Just simply changing your routine with good healthier choices will start a chain reaction and enable yourbody to reverse the dysfunction. This particular malfunction happens due to certain deficiencies in the bodycausing the main problem.

An example:

The Bad Day lunch the person would sit an watch videos inside.

The Good Day lunch the person then decides to go for a walk outside in the sun and nature.

Why Does This Matter?

This doesn’t seem like a big difference and many may disregard this as non sense but that would bewrong for thinking that. The first person is creating a worse sleep pattern by looking at more computerscreens. This person could possibly be getting stressed out by what he or she watches. Also this person issitting and not stretching or walking not allowing the body to detox by moving. Lastly this person staysindoors with artificial light robbing them of essential natural Vitamin D.

Still Why Does This Matter?

So in the healthy day by just making this one simple change, it can start a chain reaction. So by going fora walk outside this person is now detoxing their body while walking. As well as getting fresh oxygen,while de-stressing their mind and giving their eyes a break from a computer screen and also gettingnatural Vitamin D from the sun.

This is just a simple little example of what changing your routine andtracking the results can do. Then you can go back and investigate whatactually may have caused a specific thing to happen and the possiblereasons why.

This is just the beginning of all the different home remedies for sleepapnea there are lots of others to choose from. Many have had successwith a variety of different treatments. This is not a one size fits all typething.

People get sleep apnea for many reasons and have different bodies and reactions. One thing is for sure ifyou use natural methods, you may not cure yourself but you at least wont hurt anything and will just leavehealthier than before if your wrong.

Sleep Apnea Home Remedies Can Be As Simple As Eliminating Something Negative

Research has stated that northern Europeans such as Irish people have a higher percentage of glutenintolerance. Gluten is now becoming a problem for many others including those who have not beendiagnosed as gluten intolerant. Gluten has been the reason for many peoples sleep apnea to be caused orto exacerbate symptoms.

If you feel like your looking puffy it can be a sign that your having an allergic reaction which can causesleep apnea to occur. Many have claimed that when they went gluten free their sleep apnea stopped.

Also getting rid of a poor un firm mattress and broke down pillow can help. Raising the head of your bed aswell as sleeping propped up with a foam wedge can also help a lot when still trying to figure out the maincause of your sleep apnea.

Sleep Apnea Home Remedies That Just Involve Taking Higher Doses Of Vitamins

There is also speculation that high amounts of vitamin C can dramatically help sleep apnea if not cure it.

Page 5: Home Remedies For Sleep Apnea

Vitamin C is a natural antitoxin and antihistamine. 3000-4000mg of C has been known to really help sleepapnea symptoms. This needs to be taken regularly and in much higher amounts than the daily allowance.

I can’t cover exactly how to take vitamin C in this article plus it should possibly be discussed with a naturalhealth professional, as everybody has different needs. I can tell you that you can take very high doses ofvitamin C in the right forms. I’m going to break down some facts below so you can be the judge.

If you are taking anything higher than 2000-3000mg of vitamin C it is considered a mega dose and shouldbe taken using sodium asorbate crystals. This is typically taken through an I.V. and is not absorbic acid,you can however take up to 3000mg of regular absorbic acid C.

Americans eating the Standard American Diet (S.A.D) typically will have high acidity in their gut. If youhave high acidity in your gut and take 10,000 mg of vitamin C you are likely to have other mild side effectssuch as

Loose stools

Nausea

Vomiting

There are clinics that focus on health that offer intravenous Vitamin C mega doses using ascorbate liquid.There are people that have been given 250,000 Plus+mg of sodium ascorbate liquid vitamin C without anyside effects.

You need to watch out where you get your information as many will tell you that high doses of vitamin Ccauses kidney stones which is a myth. You just want to steer clear of calcium ascorbate vitamin C whentaking mega doses.
