My dad has Parkinson's and has very poor-quality sleep. He also has had anti-snoring surgery in the past, and chronic post-nasal drip (which I also seem to have). This article raises questions in my mind as to whether any of these are related.
Also interesting is this: "researchers were able to successfully modulate cervical lymphatics using phenylephrine (which activates α1-adrenergic receptors, causing smooth-muscle contraction)"
Phenylephrine is the so-called decongestant that has finally been called out for being a fraud in oral medications (and I can tell you from painful, painful experience that it is indeed a fraud). I was surprised to see that it allegedly accomplishes something in this particular application.
Or you could drink beetroot juice a few times per week.
Who knows if this will work though. I have my suspicions that inversions are very good for brain health and blood flow and I sleep better if I do yoga before bed.
I quite enjoy Sivananda yoga it’s fairly easy, reminds me of a beautiful time in their Ashram outside Madurai and you can see real progress because the basic routine is always the same.
