The simple benefits of nasal breathing
Benefits December 30th, 2010
You might think that the choice between breathing through your nose or through your mouth is simply one of convenience. However, several doctors have stated the benefits of nasal breathing over breathing through the mouth. Today, wireless internet service makes it easier than ever to find health information no matter where you are, although you should always consult with your own doctor if you have any serious questions.

Sneezing your eyes out
Nose Myths September 30th, 2010
Many people have heard the urban legend that keeping your eyes open while sneezing will literally pop them out of your head. Is there any truth to this rumor?Absolutely notthe legend is just that.

Furthermore, eye sockets are not even connected to the nasal passages. Eyelids close during a sneeze simply because the ocular and nasal nerves are closely connected. It looks like this rumor will simply have to be put down to someone’s gruesome flight of fancy.

For those of us who live in areas where the air can become unbearably dry at any time of year, the symptoms are common: dried-out skin, throat pain, itching in the eyes, sinus headaches, and more. The exhaustion that regularly accompanies these feelings can make it hard to search for a solution, but luckily humidifiers can help combat these uncomfortable issues.Buying your first humidifier can be confusing if you don’t know what you’re looking for. Most humidifiers are evaporative or wick models, in which a fan blows in order to evaporate water. The water evaporates more or less quickly based on the humidity of the room, so these models are effective self-regulators, but their wicks can easily become moldy. Read more »
