Significant nasal stuffiness and congested nasal passages is a primary factor in poor and reduced sleep quality and especially in those who suffer from sleep apnea according to NYC Allergist Dr. Clifford Bassett, in his &SLEEP episode, in which Dr. Bassett details the natural physiology of breathing through our nose and how important it is to treat congestion to maintain quality sleep.
