This is a great video!! I cured my severe sleep apnea and I come from a long family line of sleep apnea sufferers. Here's how I did it. I cut out all inflammatory foods and started exercising every day. I quit sugar, alcohol, refined foods and only ate a whole food diet (no snacking). After around three months my weight returned to normal and no sleep apnea. Today I no longer wake up choking and gasping for air in the middle of the night. My sleep is now long and deep, and I rarely even snore. An example of what I eat on a whole food diet is - mashed boiled egg and avocado, salmon with side of salsa salad followed by greek yoghurt with sliced fruit. I cut out all pasta and baked goods - bread, cookies, crackers, cake, donuts, bagels and all packaged foods with added sugar. I am cured and wake up feeling so well. I walk every day, I gym 4 times a week. Life is good!!
God Bless you!! If you can do it I know I can too!! 🙏🏽
Can you elaborate on which inflammatory foods you cut out? Not sure if those are different to the ones you mentioned in the following sentence. Great post!
Yes which inflammatory Foods U cut off & thks 4 infor" I loveme someDr.mandel infor' & the beat goes on when ppl gives testimony
I made the same dietary changes as you. I added ACV which made an immediate change in my acid reflux. I lost 165 lbs. Without any exercise.
@@shaggydog5409 ACV?
I used a cpap for 10 years. Spent $940 for one that adjusts pressure automatically several times per minute. Went on a strict keto diet and 3 months later no cpap, no BP meds, no statin meds. Only downside- had to buy smaller size clothes.
Im in the same boat now...how much total weight did you lose?
What a great downside! Better to spend money on the clothing than all the side effects of SA
Oh darn! Who wants a new wardrobe!! I do! I did that too. only it took me a lot longer than 3 months. Then I started gaining weight back and my sleep apnea came back. I am back on Keto. I also fell and injured my nose and I do get stuffed up at night.
So the sleep apnea wasnt from a tight airway?
@@balkee42 mine is although I’m not having symptoms after drastic diet change 7 weeks ago
You made me cry! I have been given so many meds , and my body is in bad shape,Grand mall seizures and memory loss, bones so soft I can't lay down on the ground without cracking a rib or something. Bowels were shutting down, I was dying. Thank God Almighty 🙏 🙌 ❤️ I found you!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️ 💙 💜 I love you so much for your help. God Bless you and your Beautiful family 🙏🙏🙏🫂🫂🫂❤️✨️
Vitamin D deficiency causes sleep apnea.check your levels and take D3.
@kellyhiggins I love you and I am praying for you from this day forward.
May God HEAL you and USE you.
Be blessed you mighty woman of the most high God.
@Side2Side_Side-Ology Thank you Sweetheart I appreciate it very much 💓 💕
This is how a doctor should be. Showing us how to live a lifestyle that prevents us to not need prescriptions to get by everyday. Most doctors just want to make money off of their patients. I know this dr. Feels great for helping people on here.
Exactly, preventative medicine.
Exactly!
I'm sure this helpful valuable Information aggravates Money
Hungry Docs.
No harm meant but I'm always looking for a cure not just a
"temporary treatment" that can
only be a quick fix if that at all.
Peace & Blessings 🌱
Lookup Dr. Shankara Chetty. That interview will blow you away!
@@superdude7459 Look at Dr. Shankara Chetty it will blow you away.
This Doc really seems to care about people! Your AWSOME DOC!!
You're . . Just saying
Thx you are a treasure
Hats off to doctor 🖒
His awesome
@@leelashan8866 ,good points mentioned about sleep apnea; as well as acid reflux condition and dry 👄 mouth.Very informative!
You just solved my heart problems that I have been having for 4 years. After $30k+ medical bill ER and useless doctors, I am sleeping well.
How long until u started having changes? I am being super strict diet since yesterday I am so desperate at this point
@@aimeekreutzer-malkawi try real olive oil b4 bed. Drink a lil, maybe gargle a lil with it too. You want to coat tongue / throat.
Nothing greater than a doctor who is telling the truth about how we can heal ourselves
actually every doctor tells you to lose weight for sleep apnea.
HEAL OURSELVES
Few Doc's tell us
Big Pharma = NOT GOOD!!
GOD GAVE US EVERYTHING TO HEAL....BIG PHARMA IS EVIL
THIS DOC IS AMAZING ❤️🥰
I assume you are a doctor, otherwise how would you know?
@@ChannelMath😂😂😂
Yes, much appreciated. We must remember that he is not an MD. MDs only prescribe medicines from big pharma. We are all seeking more. We are doing our best to move away from big pharma. Thankfully, this approach offers different options!!!/Kudos.
I had sleep apnea since my late teens, and I raced bicycles! Thin as a stick too. I woke up from surgery and noticed that my O2 saturation was 72%! 🤯
I found a doctor that prescribed a cpap machine (after TWO sleep studies), life got better quickly. I quit drinking milk 1 month ago and started drinking ACV. I'm losing the weight that I gained after several injuries, and my acid reflux is GONE. Praise the Lord Jesus!
Edit necessary due to an overlooked contradiction. 🤗
Did you get braces in your teens? Did they treat you for an over bite?
What is ACV reason why I am ask is because I suffer from sleep apnea too and I am try to lose weight and get rid off my acid reflux
@@annmatthews9474 Apple Cider Vinegar
You did the right thing I have sleep apnea I'm still on the machine I am losing inches more than weight I am very thankful that I have the machine and yes you did all the right things
Why, if you are "thin as a stick" are you losing weight?
I am from Brazil and old people there recommended salt water gurgling for lots of things. My mom usually said that doing it regularly make even your throat stronger and free of infections, bacteria or virus. Very nice hearing it from you.
This is true. My grandmother always had us gargling with warm salt water.
This a Common Practice in India.🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Ty
I also heard that from some other doctors, I think it's true
it’s True. I stared doing this salt water gargling before bedtime and it works. Happy wife now 🙂
I love Dr. Mandell's passion for healing and his empathy for fellow human beings. You can always tell he is a kind, caring soul.
Sleeping on my left side really worked for me immediately.
Thank you so much. God bless you 🙏🏾
It happened to me a couple of times, I woke up in desperation cause I wasn’t breathing so it got so much better when I did the following, stopped drinking alcohol, stopped baked goods and flour 80%, moved dinner from 10-11 pm to 6-7 pm the latest, started hydrating more during the day and changed my eating habits more healthy foods.
Yes .
It did all that and even lost weight and still didn't solve
Yogic Breathing technics can be tried.
Did you mean flour? Or flower
There are different types of sleep apnea with different causes. Diet can't solve all types. It's very important to work with your doctor and not just blindly follow the advice of a "doctor" online who has never physically examined you or evaluated your results of a sleep study.
Absolutely!! I agree this is exactly how doctors used to be and should still be… and I’ll say it …. Until big pharma took over healthcare!!!! This man is a God sent for us in healthcare who genuinely still “care” about people and have intact ethics and morals !!! Many many thanks to you, doc !!!
Some doctor's, are medically burned out... in need of a long leisure vacation or two.
yeah especially the direct marketing to people..." ask your doctor about....fill in the blank...
Thank Obama for making it big business no competition then we end up with D doctors instead of A doctors
Big Pharma wants to sell you DRUGS. That’s why they fund medical schools to teach med students how to “manage symptoms” with drugs. It used to be that medical students were trained to treat the problem. Now they are trained to treat the symptoms with drugs. Case in point: How many people do you know who are using multiple drugs to treat symptoms and the side affects of the symptoms?
Lol
this very very crucial , great information, my mother suffers from sleep apnea, she just suffer from several strokes that left her Paralyze , very very sick now , now praying for her for healing I wish I would of know about her condition , she told us before 🥺 , Im taking all this information so I could help my mom heal , Gods will!
Thank you thank you thank you. This is a kickstart for me. Have sleep apnea and my dad just passed away recently. The time is now for a proper health change.
Bendiciones 🙏.
Thanks Dr Mandell you are a God sent..
Anytime I ask Jesus to heal me one one of your video's comes on! Thank you Doc this is such a Blessing not just for me but for everyone!!! GOD BLESS YOU!!!

@@jp2650 where do you believe God's Kingdom apon the earth is? I'm curious to here your answer. I know where it is but your answer is what what I'm asking.
I have been talking sleeping pill for a long time
I had sleep apnea from 2014 to 2019. In 2019 I lost about 50 lbs. I was finally able to stop using my cpap machine! But after listening to the video today, I still think that I may have silent reflux. I'm ready to keep improving my life, so thank you for the great education.
Hi mam, please reply...still you dont use cpap
What was your Ahi when you first diagnosed?
@@preetimittal2123
Yes. I also saw a video that links sleep apnea to low B vitamins. I started taking a daily Nutritional Yeast supplement which is high in natural B vitamins. It's also helped! My husband doesn't complain about me snoring either. It's been since spring of 2019 that I used my CPAP machine.
Properly hydrating yourself through the night will help keep your sinuses moist and working properly improving your breathing! Good job!
@@MA_808 are you also suffer from sleep apnea
Great video! My husband has sleep apnea and silent reflux. He has now developed an awful cough so I will take the advice to gargle with salt water and get that ACV into him before meals in a glass of water. We must cut the puddings out, not eat late in the evening and I will get him some Magnesium too. I think the best vit D3 is the sun in summer but we need it in pill form in the winter too. My husband is nearly 90 but I want him to stay as healthy as possible. Wonderful help from Dr Mandel. Many, many thanks. 🙏😍
Hello ma’am! Can you pls let me know which kind of brand magnesium Dr mentioned! Pls do reply???
@@SarjeetSharma-sj5gh he recommends magnesium citrate or glycinate(maybe gluconate?) ...he didn't make a brand. those r types of magnesium that can n bought and taken in evening. I like the brand "Calm"
Mag citrate can give loose stools… I prefer Mag Glycinate & buy the NOW brand if I can.
@@Gerbtheblurb Agreed 💯!
I have leaky gut, fibromyalgia, sleep apnea, depression, anxiety, night terrors, night mares, panic attacks and chronic fatigue . . .ever since I was 19. I've been following your videos recently. . . you're a dream come true!!!🌈🌦️🙂
I am happy to hear that you are doing better.
@@river4462mom with undiagnosed untreated lifelong narcissist bipolar psychopath symptoms come from a poverty dysfunctional alcoholic(Christian) family who expected their kids to be perfect . . .it's still a jacked up mess . . .my dad was abused and had undiagnosed ADHD. . .I had untreated head trauma and vision problems with severe exhaustion and pain . . kept getting humiliated for not doing better in school . . .parents were corporate driven not soul finding . . . I'm just now sorting it all out . . .
Of course I can't tell her . . .there would
be a hole in the roof
And I do see chiropractors, therapists, I work in nature as much as I can, I meditate, use the YT tutorials, I do everything I possibly can
I am a Christian and would like to say I am so sorry you went through all of that. No one is perfect that why Jesus had to die for us. I think people are scared of failure and what others will think of them. God come for the broken and He uses our imperfections. I was always judged by others also. But just the other day at church the message was about broken people. I felt like God was saying you don’t need to be perfect I will use you with brokenness. I just sat and cried. Opposite of you it was someone who is not saved that unbeknownst to them always seemed to want me to do everything correct. Which in itself is not bad but if I fail I need to be encouraged not berated. I feel so free
Have you try fasting and keto diet? People talk wonders of it.
Dr. MANDEL you are such a blessing to mankind.

I don't know what happened and I'm in shock. I have no clue if it's because I watched this video. It's the second night I gargled salt water straight before bed. It's the second night and I've just woken in shock. It has to be about three years since I last did this, but last night I slept for 5 hrs and 30 mins with just one waking up for a split second and then went straight back to sleep. Pls understand I only sleep at a max of 4 hrs (and that is good for me) without waking up. Normally between 3-4 hrs and then after that it's even more broken. But last night I slept for 5 hrs and 30 mins, I am stunned and I had to come straight here and express that. I am SO grateful. I don't know if it was the salt gargle but it would be a coincidence if it wasn't. I'm going back to sleep now for a couple of hours but I'm just so grateful to Motivational Doc and for this video. God bless us all. 🙏
I am 63, when i was in my early 20's i had this sleep apnea problem. It scared me because i was a back sleeper and i learned to sleep on my side, that made it safe for me to sleep. Forty years ago I didn't know what sleep apnea was. I will still lose the weight and follow these tips.😊
My son in law has sleep apnea. He lost weight and changed his diet and is greatly improved.
Please share more details on this. I have it very severe.thanks
" it s not about numbers. for me it about lives". glory hallelujah........a medical professional who "gets it " God bless you
Love this guy! Smartest Doc. I know, in all my 74 years! He's honest, direct and for REAL. So glad I found him !!!😊
YES! AMEN.
Dr Mandell u are a walking Encyclopedia. Thank you so much. Always enjoy your videos. U explain so thoroughly with measuring tips n all. Enjoyed the interviews of ppl with questions. Ur a Charme. God Bless you! ❤️🙌🙏
Thank you Dr. Mandell for sharing this information on sleep apnea! I hate so much using a cpap, I quite using my cpap after loosing 83 lbs. Dr. Still say I need to use a cpap but I totally disagree strongly! I don't stop breathing nor do I snore. I will keep watching your video. You have helped with this new info. Thank you so much!!!

Γεια σου Ελλάδα! Yes, he’s the most awesome doctor! We love him!
There's a homesteader on YT who had severe GERD and she said docs said they were concerned about her survival as it was that bad. She stopped eating all refined/processed foods and went all organic with most of her food coming from her own garden. Her acid completely went away and she can even eat tomatoes/tomato products from her garden without incident. Very encouraging personally as I've had GERD almost all of my life- even when I wasn't overweight and had no sleep apnea. Our food has a huge impact.
I had real bad GERD and realized that eating wheat products in the evening were the main cause for me.
I dropped the bread and cookies after the PM and it made it go away after just a few days. It was almost magical.
What's hwr page name please xxx
I have very painful endometriosis and out of desperation I tried to change my diet. About two months ago I went gluten free and drastically cut refined sugar and processed food. I used to have bad GERD and it completely disappeared. I can even eat acid foods in the evening and it's fine. My endo symptoms also improved, although I know it will take a bit longer to have a real impact. Bonus effect: I effortlessly lost 4 kilos in 2 months 😊 Food really does a huge difference
Incident! For sure.
Grocery store foods by big corp. Have bad things In them..we seriously must return to grow our own food like before.
Stop eating Fast Food!!
No processed Foods.
This is my number one favorite channel on TH-cam! So much great advice on the root causes of problems from a truly caring doctor! You’ve helped me so much to treat the cause and not the symptoms of some of my problems. God bless you, Dr Mandell. Thank you.
Check out Dr Eric Berg as well 👏🏽
Brilliant! Dr did sleep study and wanted to put me on CPAP. I sensed it had to do with my throat getting "congested" after several hours sleeping. Eventually went to a Naturopath who said it could be silent reflux. I used a slightly higher pillow and worked on digestive issues, and I don't think I'm having apnea episodes in wee hours anymore. Thanks for the helpful video!
How long did it take before your sleep improved?
@@aimeekreutzer-malkawi I'd say within 1-2 months. I should add that the ND noted I had a hiatal hernia (which was a big cause of the silent reflux) so he fixed that. The other factor which caused a thick feeling in my throat (affecting apnea) was allergies, so I tried to avoid those foods, took a supplement the ND recommended for healing the gut, and also took enzymes (adding betaine hcl once we felt the reflux was no longer an issue) to aid digestion. So it was a multi-pronged approach.
Here are some other tips: You might work on tightening the muscles that keep your mouth closed by holding a pen between your teeth for about 10 minutes before bedtime. If your jaw starts to ache, you can easily stop.
You don’t want to do anything that is too much - this is a gradual process of training and retraining.
And there are also other simple practices you can do throughout the day like singing in the shower or singing in the car.
Singing can help increase the muscle control in the throat and soft palate and it’s simple and fun to do.
Just put on your favourite music and sing to your heart's content.
So now that you have learned some simple techniques to keep the good work going,
Imagine yourself in your sleeping sanctuary or your bedroom once again. You might see yourself taking a warm bath, reading a book, getting ready for bed or pulling down the sheets. Sometimes these nighttime rituals can be very soothing and helpful.
Now, as you climb into bed, you might smooth the sheets over your body. Go ahead and go through all the steps you would normally take before going to bed.
You might try sleeping on your side or strapping a tennis ball to the bottom of your back to enforce sleeping on your side.
And now just in case you want a few more tips, there are also some additional things you can try during your day.
For example, some people find it helpful to place the length of their tongue to the roof of their mouth holding it there for as long as they can.
You can repeat this simple practice 2-3 times a day.
You might also purse your lips just like you were about to kiss someone slowly moving them up to the right and then up to the left repeating about 10 times.
Gargling with water or placing your lips on a balloon and blowing it up can also be helpful.
And if you really feel like having some fun, you can try opening your mouth as wide as possible and then saying ah in the back of the throat for about 20 seconds.
Now while these exercises may seem simple - they can be highly effective when practised enough.
Thank you!!
This is the best info Ive ever seen regarding sleep apnea. Thank you so much. I thinking of ev er ryone I can pass this on to.
Where did you get this info from? My mouth won’t stay closed whether I sleep on side or not..I’m fighting with mouth tape every time ..lips , mouth constantly dry ..day ,night …Don’t think I have sleep apnea..
@@lizwiening3939 I’m a hypnotherapist and theatre director - I work with insomnia and sleep apnea. Obviously one size does not fit all! Some clients have managed to stop the effects happening. It can be a matter of modifying how you sleep. I also use hypnosis to suggest that they breathe in sleep I’m a modified version of their daytime breathing - as we don’t generally suffer in waking mode. Some people will end up having the operation to trim excess flesh. Some might do it through weight loss. Or utilising the tips in this video…. And there is a whole bunch of stuff surrounding before you sleep. In your case I’d say try ear nose and throat specialist to define the issue more clearly
Nice tips 👍👌
My silent reflux was causing chronic bronchitis (14 months on antibiotics!). I lost 5 kg, changed to high vegetable and colour fruits, cut out processed foods. I made smoothies AND I added slippery elm powder to the smoothies. The bronchitis has now gone
I sleep better now.
@user-mb8vv1vx5u: Couldnt agree w/ you more regarding the Slippery Elm!!! SLippery Elm is great for any bodily inflammation. Been using for yrs mostly for Crohn's Disease, IBS. Soothes my gut. I like to make a tea w/ it. How do you use it & in what form do you buy it? 🤔. 😊 From NYC . I too have silent Reflux & a hiatal hernia that makes life pretty damn miserable when I eat.
We have to watch using supplements.. sometimes it has an effect on the medicine's we take. Check with your pharmacist first, before taking any supplement's when taking medicine's of any type!
@@paulao7022 a
Yes, alternatives to medicine can have negative interactions. Thank you for pointing this out.
P.S. My parents said that I snored like a lion ever since I was born. Almost all the neighborhood kids did from what I was told when I was a kid. All my friends did when we had sleep overs and Boy Scout camp. This includes girls too. Have a CPAP. Every time I've used it, I have gotten a horrible sinus infection-tried all cleaning methods, even a new mask right out of the wrapper-same thing & nothing gets any better. A vicious circle day after day. I've lost a total of 46 LBS in the last 6 months>lots of muscle mass. I've learned a lot from this that NONE of my Dr.s have picked up on. Outstanding video that everyone should see. Thank you. I am very very disappointed in the medical profession because most just focus on the ($)signs.
Did you use your cpap now..after looses 46 lbs weight? Because i heard after lose weight there is no need to use cpap
May God bless you for your expressions of love toward others😊
Dr. Mandel , you have been sent to earth by Almighty. Love to listen to you daily and get to know many things about human body and its complexity. Tons Tons of thanks.

One thing that will actually help in the short term is a mouldable, adjustable mouth guard. Use it to move your lower jaw forward a small amount and it means the obstructions can’t happen.
I’m saying this as somebody who has had SA for years and recently used a mouth guard and am now having the best sleep of my life.
Thank you I have been struggling using the CPAP machine cannot stand the mask on my face
What specific brand and source of ‘moldable, adjustable mouth guard’ did you find so helpful?
@@paulaanthis4031 Well, I think the mouldable ones are all very similar, but come under different Brant names. The first one I used was just through an Amazon search. I think it’s called something like Tranquility. They all seem to have very similar packaging too. Small white box with a bit of light blue.
The instructions say to leave it in boiling water for 30 seconds, but this is incorrect. You need to boil water, pour into a cup and put the mouth guard in there for about 90 seconds. I used tongs to make sure it was fully submerged.
Then, take it out and hold on to the hard plastic part and give it a shake for a few seconds. This cools down the outer so you don’t burn yourself. Put it into your mouth and rest it on your bottom teeth, then gently bite down until you come to a stop.
The key here is to keep at still as possible for about 1 minute while it moulds to your teeth. It should feel really snug around them.
After 1 minute open your mouth. It should come off one set of teeth. Then gently take it off the other set and put it in cold water. This sets it.
Once set you can then take the two pieces apart and move the bottom jaw forward. Don’t do too much at once or you’ll end up with a sore jaw. Do it gradually over a few days so your jaw can get used to being in the new nighttime position.
You need to wash it each evening but only with cold water and a toothbrush. Don’t use warm water.
One thing to note… I bought my first from Amazon and it came with a note inside that said “free gift here” and a qr code. The free gift was ANOTHER mouth guard. So if it seems a bit expensive, you actually get 2.
Honestly, it’s been life changing. It’s helped me lose weight too because I’m actually getting a good sleep. No more headaches from snoring either.
Please where did you get the mouth guard? I will really appreciate your response. Thanks a million
The Lord is answering my prayer through all your videos. I’m looking for your videos everyday and finding great relief in so many issues. No red tape or bottles of things to buy , just a man of God speaking truth. Thank you so so much.! FYI ,your presentation are easy to listen to,to the point , really since the spirit of the Lord in you!
Dr Mandell, great job with this discussion. As a registered sleep Technologist, I wanted to say that.. Can't argue with Any thing you said. Furthermore, this needs to be talked about more. Sleep apnea is the silent killer. God bless...
I have sleep problem, and acid refuse Thx for info
You are spot on with my husband. Hes been on a c pap and has acid reflux. Hes not on the machine anymore but hes constantly clearing his throats. Hes fituged,tired,brain fog,etc. Hes being tested for heavy metal poison in his blood. He takes hormone therapy and gets VB infections. He also takes 50,000 IU of VD
You are amazing Dr. Mandell, you are showing others - how a doctor should be. Showing us how to live a lifestyle that prevents us to not need medication and it give side effect on our body by everyday. I am a great follower of your videos it gives me more confident and feels great for helping people on this platform
Jan 2022 weighting 182lbs, i started dieting. My goal was 155lbs which I reached early May 2022. Had been on a Cpap machine/mask about 30 months at the time. Long story short made an appointment with my Apnea therapist in August and she bolted in the exam room all excited, showing me my apnea was gone. No more Cpap machine needed for me!
What was your Ahi when you diagnosed?
Respirtory Event Index (Ahi) was 25.8/hour when first tested. my min oxygen saturation was 71% and Avg oxygen saturation of 92%,
Big love!! I've had the surgery, actually a butchering to no avail. CPAP machine, no dice. Now after dropping 50+ pounds, regular Vitamin D3, multi vitamins and salt water gargle..Some improvement, still lot's of damage done. Difficulty swallowing from esophagus scarring, teeth ruined from acid, heart arrhythmia condition for over 12 years. So the sleeping with back elevation, Apple cider vinegar, Magnesium and no eating 2 to 3 hours before bed. I'm adding these to my tool belt and at age 59+ and a warrior, hopefully I can live at least another decade with greater quality of life. Bipolar on top of these other things, but I'm grateful to live and learn. Thank you for your continued time and energy, I wish good health for you and all in this community. Lot's of wisdom in prevention through nature. Hopefully one day soon that will become a very relevant aspect of medical school. Love to all❤️
Sleep apnea caused me brain damage from hypoxia- please use a cpap if you can. I got used to it and it changed my life.
Also..have you tried the salt water nasal wash…?.? It gets the stuff in the back of the throat out for sure. As often as you need when the sinus accumulates and causes lots of hacking and coughing. Gargling with salt water is good but the nasal wash before that is very effective.
I've read that excess of salt It's inflammatory. Maybe you would have to reduce it
Your arrhythmia is because of sleep apnoea. Once you have that in control, everything will fall in place
The vitamin D supplements are not backed with good studies.
YES DR Mandell Thank You This Good Word On What Can Help US - these bodies need help !🥰💛🥰❤️🙏✝️💯👋 Tell MOM Hello !
Thanks, Dr. Mandell.
I was suffering from SA and now I am "almost" SA free, with enough sleep not to yawn all day. Your advices worked "as well"
Wow!!! I have sleep apnea and gerd. Last night, I saw this video and I gargled with warm salt water and propped myself up on pillows. Used my Cpap machine and for the first time in months I slept for 8 hours with 0 incidents. Thank you! Thank you!!! Now on to the next steps…to cut out the rich foods and start with the vitamins, walking after a meal. God bless!!!
How much salt to how much water?
any update ?

He is 🤷♀️🤷♀️🙄🙄😅😅 giving you more advice,be grateful 🤷♀️🤷♀️💜💜🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹
Thank you, doctor. I have been drinking the apple cider vinegar lemon and honey 1st thing every morning. I will try the salt and water gargle method every night for my sleep apnea and acid reflux. Also, thank you for explaining why not to sleep on the right side and that it is better to sleep on the left. This has been very helpful! I really enjoy following your advice videos. God bless
I’m in Jamaica and my sister is in England and we have just been talking sleep apnea and then you came on so I’ve sent her your video! Your kindness shows in your face thank you I’ve used your advice on so many things
Doing salt water gargles every night will also help us prevent other infections on top of the benefit for sleep apnea. Thank you!
Do you know if the salt water gargle could have any adverse effects?
@@heartscontent to be honest, I haven’t experienced any adverse effects.
@@heartscontent Just try not to swallow any, as salt can obviously increase your blood pressure, as well as make you bloat.
Gargling resets the Vagus Nerve.
I sure wish there were more doctors like you Dr. Mendell. Any one who Listens to you can actually see that. So happy that you are involved here with all of us who appreciate you. Thanks for being who you are and for sharing your love of caring for others the way you do.
I believe more and more Dr. Are coming across the fence.
Thank you Dr Mandela
I only listen to Dr. Mandela and Dr. Berg!💕
FYI My husband's chronic silent reflux and sleep apnea completely stopped since we now do ZERO sugar. Just cleared up instantly.
You are what every doctor should be, truthful. God bless you always.
after 13 months of Keto and losing over 47 lbs, I tossed my CPAP and can sleep without the mask and have dreams as well, indicating deep REM sleep. Such a liberation to finally lose the weight and as this video points out, key to reducing your apnea issues! thanks! Snore - Less here in Oregon
That's great, well done and thanks for sharing.
Congratulations!❤
Keto is helping me too
Keto is terrible long-term. Yes, you will lose a lot of weight on low carb, but you’re also affecting your body’s ability to tolerate carbs, which are essential. It’s not sustainable for the majority of people. When you start eating carbs again, you’ll not only gain all the weight back, but your blood sugar regulation will be worse than before. Most of the purported benefits of keto are purely a result of cutting out the majority of processed foods. The same “miracle” cures are reported with other restrictive diets. The key is to add more good foods such as fermented foods, the right herbs, etc. The more you add good foods, the less processed foods you crave. Much more effective long term, with the added bonus of not having the common drawbacks associated with restrictive diets. There are plenty of cultures (including all the blue zones where people live past 100) where people eat high carb diets and are extremely healthy. But they move a lot. They do a lot of walking. Lots and lots of walking. Daily walking and drinking enough water are the most effective things one can do for their health, but most people don’t want to do this.
@@Love-eg2vf Clean Keto does that.
The gargling of the salt water will also exercise the muscles that help control the closing of the throat at night causing the apnea as well 🙏🏼💪🏼
Can anyone tell me if doctor Mandrell has done video on anyting for the lungs COPD that will help I know he sent the Magnesium with help but has he done one on just helping the lungs please help me if you know he has one
Thank you
How will gargling stop throat closing
I have sleep apnea I know I need to lose weight and give up coffee and I will try salt water thanks for sharing 😊👍🏾
I'm completely floored and nearly in tears for learning about this and finding ways to help improve my sleep and my life. Thank you so much for offering this information freely.
I am now learning about sleep apnea. My wife says its frightening to see me stop breathing. Your insights is educational and looking forward to trying your methods
I have sleep apnea. I have watched and followed you for a while now. I think you're very smart. You explain health issues very well and thorough. I struggle with anxiety and eat wrong at night. I want to do like you tell us so bad! I will not give up. Keep teaching us the right stuff for our health.
I stopped night snacking a year ago. Key is NOT to buy the snacks and to only purchase healthy foods. Organic raisins and popcorn helped me transition. No crackers or chips come into my house. Gradual changes make a difference. 🙏
He suggested magnesium….it reduces anxiety too.
I practice two meals per day and I always drink a glass of acv or lemon or lime water 30 minutes before my meals. This really helps with reflux and general digestion.
And when doing the 2 meals do you stay within 8 hrs or the 2 meals. And fast tge rest? I heard it Helps for autoimmune.
Sry for typo. Apologies.
@@thisthatandthose I eat 2 big meals at 10am and 2pm each day. Cup of tea at sunset.
Truth!!!
I take omeprozole for acid reflux. It helps that tremendously. But doesn't help my sleep apnea.
God bless you, Dr. Mandell💕✝️💕. You truly are a vessel of God's healing virtue! ✝️🙏✝️
Hi Doc, I've had this for years and I've gone through all the sleep studies and CPAP machine that gave me painful air in my stomach in the morning. So I sleep a couple hours at a time and that's pretty much the best I can do. Thanks for bringing up this unknown subject that I only learned from experience. Your the best friend and doctor, thanks 🙏 🕊️
You have air in your stomach because your pressure is too high. Lower the pressure and make it very close numbers like 7 to 8. Lots of sleep doctors will start you with numbers like 5 to 20. Which is insane because the pressure will go up and then you will wake with a bloated stomach full of air. Happened to me. So I closed the gap. Went from 5 to 20 down to 8 to 9 then eventually 7 to 8. You need to find what pressure is right for you.
@@michaelbattista1334 I can't
I can't believe that's all it is. Your the first one to help me with this, thank you. I got the machine through my insurance but then I moved and had to change plans because of me starting Medicare. I went to two different sleep apnea places and they wouldn't touch my machine or help me, so I couldn't use it. It's still in a box by my bed. God bless you.
@@douglaschristine8387 My pleasure.
What brand CPAP do you have?
Dr. Mandel is a "Medical Angel" sent from Heaven. Thank You So Much Dr. Mandel and God Bless You! I TRUST YOU over the so-called medical professionals. I tell people research "natural" alternatives as the Native Americans and others did.
Intermittent fasting, Drinking fresh squeezed lemon/lime in water, eating in early evening, brushing teeth, gargling with salt water. Going to sleep at least 3 hours after meal.
Thank you
Gargling with salt water. How much salt and water?
@@user-ur1pk7du4u I also want to know
Thankyou.
Wow I saw a short video a few days ago when you said to gargle at night with salt water it definitely worked for me! Thank you😁 I have a lot to do to heal myself.
Can I ask what did the salt water does that helps you?
Yep I have experienced the same as what 2 other viewers have reported.......just after praying for help, I am led to Dr. Mandel channel. All his other advice which I followed, help e.g. excercises , facial massage. 😊
Raise your head either with a wedge pillow or articulated bed. Reduces snoring, sleep apnea events and reduces acid reflux events. Helped with all three for me.
He did mention that.
Weed😎
I did this - it didn't help and and both my apnea and acid reflux are getting worse. I am not able to use my CPAP machine at the moment so I hope to improve when I get new equipment for my machine 😉
@@kimberlyaustin6677 have you tried Apple Cider Vinegar for your reflux
@@priscillagray-williams9437 on and off...not sure if I'm supposed to eat food with it or drink it directly. I had an ulcer for a while, so I had to back off the ACV because it really hurt. Now that medicine has helped with the ulcer I will put ACV back in my diet 😉👍.
This doctor is amazing
Omg.. this is so me. I have sleep apnea and i now know i have silent reflux. Thank you so very much. You've helped me.
I lived for years with undiagnosed sleep apnea. I would wake up choking in the night either from acid reflux or from just having to cough from waking before I could take in a breath again. My daughter who has Sickle Cell Disease slept beside me at night and would stay awake because she witnessed the times I would stop breathing and she would stay awake so she could stir me to take a breath. Sometimes when she couldn’t wake me she would run to her sister’s room to help wake me so I would take a breath. I didn’t know about sleep apnea at the time, and I wasn’t even aware that I snored back then. It wasn’t until I stayed in a hotel with my best friend and scared her to death one night when she witnessed me stop breathing and waited for me to take a breath. I remember her finally being able to wake me up and seeing the look of terror on her face. I was miserable for so many years with brain fog, depression, low thyroid, dizziness, etc. I finally got some relief when I saw a doctor and got a C-pap machine. I dealt with insomnia before then because I was afraid of dying in the night from either aspiration of food or just not being able to cough so I could take my next breath. My daughter was my biggest motivation to finally see a doctor because I never knew she was losing sleep watching over me, and with her condition, especially, that is dangerous, let alone that we all need a healthy amount of sleep. I still don’t feel like the C-pap is 100% effective though, and some days I still wake up feeling like I could do several more hours of sleep.
Dr. Mandell, I can't begin to tell you how valuable your information has changed my life! I thank you so so much!!!!
Me too.
Thank you Dr. Mandell. You are spot on! 👍🏽
I had acid reflux so bad, it was eating up my esophagus!! The doctor went in and put a rubber band around the bottom of my esophagus. He closed it up, 20%. I have to eat smaller bite and drink a sip or two of water now. Having a soft drink, with this band..that's not a good idea. Ice tea is fine. As long as it's not a fizzy drink. I no longer need my acid reflux medication. I had two hernia's fixed and while the doctor was inside of me.. he discovered my esophagus, looked mushy. He told me, if you
get cancer in that now, before you heal up.. your done!! That gave me the chills. Acid reflux, should be taken very seriously! It can eat up your esophagus!
This is totally amazing , I've been suffering from anea for yrs. I have lost over 80 lbs ,I didn't know this, thankyou for sharing such great advice, Bless you Doc 🙏 ❤.
Dr. Mandell, Thank you very much. I have been identified as having sleep apnea 2 years ago. I tried the bipap equipment and couldn't adapt to the pressure levels. So I have changed my sleeping position and i use breathe right strips. These helped my oxygen levels, but i still had acid reflux. After seeing this video, it's been a month now. I have cleaned up my diet cutting out sugar and white flour. I started drinking water with Apple Cider Vinegar with water before going to sleep to reduce my acid reflux. I have lost 10 lbs. I haven't taken an antacid since. I am amazed at the improvements. I sleep longer with better quality sleep. I have a samsung watch for monitoring my sleep showing constant sleep improvements. I am 55. Thank you very much Martin.
I truely thank God for you ,God will reward you in Heaven ,for helping his people ,some destroy but you really help us .May God continue to bless you forever. and Bless your Family .
Amen🙌🏼
There is not one single video that you have put up that has not added value to me... Each video that I watch has given me help in some way... You are just wonderful... Much love and blessings to you from south Africa
Eating right helps change silent acid reflux. I found out it is better sidesleeping for those suffering from it, but didnt know sleeping on left side was best. Sometimes need to rotate to right side, and wow! First time I see a Doctor doing video talking with people and you aren't charging them money, you are sweet!
I watched this two years ago. It popped up and i totally needed this reminder. TY!
You are the best doctor ever!!! Thank you so much for your care❤
I love your "big brain" Dr. Mandell. Thank you, and God Bless for sharing it!
I have the same experience as Annette, the person below my comment.
When I'm struggling with my health, the Holy Spirit always leads me to Dr Mandel, who has information to help me. I appreciate his intelligence, kindness, and a caregiver for all of us. God bless him.
Thankyou! First came the reflux…then came the sleep apnea! Yes, yes, yes!! 👏
I have a trache, I'm on oxygen 24/7 and I hook up to a non invasive ventilator via the trache for sleeping due to extreme sleep apnea and hypoventilation.
If you suspect that you have sleep apnea, please talk to your dr and make sure they listen to you. Get a sleep study and make sure that you get a cpap or bibap as soon as possible if the study indicates that you need it....dont wind up like me who needed to be put in an induced coma for 5 weeks and wake to your life being overturned with a trache, oxygen and ventilator to sleep. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
May the Healer of all healers heal you and bring comfort to you. God bless you back. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing and many many blessings to you as well 🙏🙏. With positive affirmations you can heal your body .
Dr Alan thank you so much for your silent reflux, which I have been suffering from recently. My doctors at the hospital never even mentioned those symptoms you’ve just spoken about and how to combat this situation. Does this mean our doctors are not trained up enough, makes me wonder. As you say drugs are not the cure. Where would the world be without special people like you who take the time to help people and Educate us too. God bless you 👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
Drs don’t cure or they will lose you as a customer
@@Papepipucho Right, unfortunately 😢
@@davinawonderling9361 They are Big Pharm legal drug drug dealers whose drugs are often more deadly than the illegal ones
Sleep apnea is an interesting topic. A doctor asked me if I ever had one done. I never thought of this condition affecting my BP
You are amazing. Your ear exercises decrease the anxiety in my body in minutes. Thank you for what you do!!
I needed to see this.
You are always hitting the nail on the head. Thk u Dr. Mandell.
Look at Dr. Shankara Chetty it will blow you away.
I understand the disclaimer of this video, but this is my 'doctor'/health mentor. He has such a great heart ❤.
It is so beautiful and nice seeing someone that will go above and beyond their degree to continue study, to care so much about God's people.
I experience a genuine joyfulness when I see him engaging with the YT community.

Thanks Doc. Have a goodnight, and thanks for sharing your gifts with us. May God continue to bless and inspire you.
Dr you are always aware to help us in many ways. Thank you!
Being battling apnea since childhood. So glad to hear inclined is medically acceptable.
Do you ever get shortness of breath
I have had 45 year history of reflux, treatment including surgery, proton pump inhibitors and coincidentally, the last 3 years on CPAP for apnea. My new dr. Who practices Functional Med, has me on acids and bitters when eating, and a low carb diet. I’m hopeful this will improve everything for me! Thanks for all these tips.
Doc I've been challenged with Apnea for over 20 years. There is so much truth to what you say, I lost 30 pounds years ago and the sleep study revealed, I no longer needed the CPAP. Thank you for all you do, God bless you One Hundred fold.
How did you lose the weight can you tell me it would really help
Eating properly, drinking a lot of water, and working out consistently.. you can do it....I am 190 all muscle, but I still have sleep apnea...
@@oneilfarquharson-ifearthel3253 Do you use CPAP or any other machine or medicine? I love Jesus and my hope is in Him

Hello dr. Mandell from Canada. I love your clear messages and you articulate every single issue with such clarity that it is of great solace to hear you speak. You are a blessing to the youtubers who follow you. thanks for taking the time to explain. Thks for everything
You are a legend Dr. Mandell, the entire world loves you, not just the US! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for all of your help! God Bless you Dr.Mandell. 🙏🏻❤️
This talk has really made me think. I am always clearing my throat using lozengers and struggling to breath when I wake up. As I've said in a previous post I'm waiting for my machine. Can't thank you enough for your advice. Good health to you all.
You know I really appreciate to be honest all of the symptoms that you've described or what I've been dealing with and I believe I was misdiagnosed with sleep apnea. For a while the CPAP seem to work but now as time goes I realize that it's not what they said. Thank you so much for what you do I appreciate what you've done for me!
