A good wine with dinner or a couple of beers with friends make for a fun evening. Alcohol is known to have an exhilarating and relaxing effect. But is there a risk of breathing pauses at night?
Short and sweet:
If you want to get a good night's sleep, you should limit your alcohol consumption, especially in the hours before you go to sleep. People who suffer from sleep apnea in particular should avoid alcohol altogether if possible.
You can find out easily with the Snorefox app whether you are experiencing breathing pauses - with or without alcohol. Snorefox uses the nocturnal snoring and breathing noises to analyze whether there is a risk of sleep apnea. Quite simply via smartphone at home.
To activate the sleep apnea screening upgrade, tap "Activate Snorefox Med" within the app. You have the option of activating Snorefox Med as a self-payer or by code.
As a self-payer, first tap on "Self-Payer" and then on "Switch to Med", then select your payment method.
If you have an activation code (e.g. from a health insurance company or as part of the tester program), tap on “I have a code”. When entering the code, you should consider upper and lower case letters.
Snorefox detects breathing irregularities and respiratory events through intelligent audio analysis of snoring and breath noise patterns. In other words: Snorefox analyzes your snoring and at the same time carries out a risk check to determine whether there are dangerous breathing stops during sleep. Snorefox shows you the result of the analysis in a simple traffic light scheme. In this way, Snorefox quickly provides orientation as to whether a doctor's visit is necessary.
