Title: SLEEP ANGEL

I bought my husband a Sleep Angel for his snoring. Before he had a chance to use it I decide to try it out for myself. I've never had such a good night sleep. Before I used Sleep Angel I had problems with TMJ. Now my TMJ is completely gone. I feel like a new person. I have ordered two more for my husband & son so they can reap the benefits. Thank you so much Sleep Angel! - Sincerely, Jenny G. from So.Cal. I purchased Sleep Angel in July when I was experiencing a lot of fatigue and body aches. I had been taking a prescription medication nightly to help me achieve "quality sleep". Right away I realized a big difference in how I felt upon awakening. I stopped waking myself up snoring and my energy level began improving. This product has literally changed my life. It is an affordable and comfortable way to help stay healthy and feel more alert. Thanks again. - Sincerely, Scott Johnson Although considered harmless, snoring can actually indicate a serious medical condition called sleep apnea*. Marked by irregular breathing, sleep apnea often causes sufferers to stop breathing completely for up to several seconds and has even been linked to stroke and heart disease in some patients. I recommend Sleep Angel to all my patients who suffer from sleep apnea. This is a great product for children who suffer from this condition as well. - Dr. Parker The National Commission on Sleep Disorders Research estimates that 38,000 cardiovascular deaths, due to sleep apnea, occur each year. Over the long term, serious sleep apnea conditions have been linked to a greater risk of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. However, sleep apnea was not well understood or recognized by the medical community until recently. And only a fraction of sufferers have been diagnosed and treated. Sleep Angel is a lightweight device that supports your jaw comfortably while you sleep, so it helps keep your mouth closed while you�re sleeping. Sleep Angel actually helps you �retrain� the skin and tissue in your mouth and throat, so that they return to the size and shape they once were. The result is you stop snoring and get a better night�s sleep. Sleep Angel is comfortable to wear and very light weight. Sleep Angel can be worn by everyone in the family! Are kids snoring their way to ADHD? CNN Headline News March 4, 2002 Researchers conclude sleepiness and apnea may be exhibited as symptoms of ADHD CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) -- New research suggests children who snore face nearly double the risk of being inattentive and hyperactive, providing fresh evidence of an intriguing link between sleep problems and attention deficit disorders. If it turns out to be true, this theory could help explain the paradox over why stimulants such as Ritalin can effectively treat children with conditions like attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder who already seem over-stimulated, said Dr. Ronald Chervin, a University of Michigan neurologist and sleep researcher, and the study's lead author. CLICK HERE TO READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE When persons with sleep apnea fall asleep, their tongue falls back into their throat, blocking their airway. As they struggle for breath, their blood pressure soars," Dr. Arthur Friedlander, an oral surgeon who worked on the study, said in a statement. "We believe that this rise in blood pressure damages the inner walls of the carotid arteries lining the sides of the neck," he added. "Cholesterol and calcium stick to the injury sites and amass into calcified plaques, which block blood flow to the brain. The result is often a massive stroke." "The calcium deposits are just the tip of the iceberg," he said. "The X-ray can't show the true size of the plaque, which is also made up of fat, platelets and other soft tissue." When a person is suffering from sleep apnea, air cannot flow in or out of the nose or mouth. Oxygen is not taken in so carbon dioxide builds to dangerous levels in the blood. "It's like pressing a pillow over someone! 's face," Friedlander said. July 30, 2002 Dear Steve, I can't thank you enough for your sleep angel. My step-mother happened to get an e-mail from your company the day before I was going into the hospital for a sleep study. She bought herself one and one for me. My study showed that indeed I had oxygen deprivation going on and my 02 saturation rate was dropping 10 points during the night.I started wearing the sleep angel that next night, now in just 3 days I'm a whole new person! The fog I lived with for years has lifted and my mental acuity is remarkably improved. The second night I wore it I awoke the next morning and marveled how my aches and pains going down the stairs in the morning were GONE! This is a unbelievably easy, comfortable and inexpensive solution to those of us who have issues with sleep apnea. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Kathy Smith Burlington, Vermont Dear Sleep Angel, I've suffered from sleep apnoea for years, with debilitating effects on my mental and physical health. I've had no help whatsoever from physicians who ignored my problem -probably because they didn't know much about it - even though I repeated what I had experienced, and what my wife had witnessed. Having tried various "anti-snoring" devices with little success, I came across the Sleep Angel website, and thought that at such a low price, I have little to lose anyway- so I ordered one. I've used it now for just 2 nights, but already there is a difference. My wife, who is a light sleeper, says that she did not hear or see me gasping, and that I am already looking better for it. Also I haven't woken up at 3am, as I usually do. I look forward to continued improvement with SleepAngel. Best regards, David Reece To unsubscribe please Click Here.
