A new type of breathing aid, the Intake Breathing Magnetic Nose Strip, is gaining attention for its potential to alleviate sleep disturbances, including snoring and difficulty breathing, by improving nasal airflow. Users report significant improvements in sleep quality, waking up more rested with sustained energy throughout the day.
One user described experiencing "instant difference!! Immediately I was able to be on my right side and breathe normal. I wear the nose band every night now." Another reviewer, who previously struggled with a deviated septum and overactive mucous glands, noted that the strips have allowed them to "sleep better than I have since I was a kid" and that their wife reports they "barely snore at all anymore."
The strips are designed to open nasal passages, facilitating better breathing. Users have found that the adhesive is strong, keeping the strips in place even with movement during sleep. One testimonial highlights effectiveness for snoring, stating, "He used to snore due to issues with his nose, but not with these on, now he is breathing clear and no snoring!"
Beyond adult users, the product has also shown promise for children experiencing nasal congestion. One parent shared that the strips have been helpful for their 5-year-old son, who has narrow sinuses. "He can breathe through his nose, but barely," the parent wrote. "He’s going to need an expander to fix the issue, but in the mean time this is helping him a ton! He’s much less restless when he wears his Intake….because he can actually breathe!"
Reviewers have also praised the comfort and skin-friendliness of the material, with one user noting that the strips "adhere very well to the skin without irritating it, as the material is soft and comfortable to wear." Some users have even found them to be a viable alternative to CPAP machines, with one stating, "I stopped wearing my CPAP mask and now wear this instead. It feels safer because it doesn’t blow water into my mask or stop work randomly in the middle is the night while I’m in a deep sleep!"
Athletes and individuals seeking to optimize oxygen intake have also reported benefits, with one user suggesting they offer "an edge to optimize your oxygen intake."
