In this episode, we uncover how an ancient Indian practice of conch shell, or shankh blowing, may help ease symptoms of sleep apnoea. This condition disrupts breathing during sleep and is usually treated with CPAP machines, which many patients find uncomfortable. Researchers in Jaipur studied the effects of daily conch blowing and found reduced daytime sleepiness, fewer breathing interruptions, and higher oxygen levels at night. The unique breathing technique strengthens airway muscles and could offer a low-cost, natural alternative. While not a replacement for medical treatment, it shows promise as a supportive remedy. Join us as we explore this blend of tradition and modern science.
