This £10 pineapple tree from Asda could stop snoring
Does your partner keep you awake with their storing? Or maybe it’s the other way around? This plant from Asda could be the solution to your problem.
There’s all sorts of anti-snoring products on the market, such as nasal strips, mouth guards, and even special anti-snore pillows that are designed to silence snoring. But for some people with sleep problems, it can feel like nothing seems to work.
However, this £10 pineapple plant from Asda could be the cure many of us are looking for. It might sound bizarre at first, but there’s a good scientific reason for this.
Pineapple plants produce night-time oxygen, which can supposedly reduce snoring. It’s even NASA approved too, as their studies have shown that the plants improve air quality throughout the night which aids both better and quieter sleep. Nice.
It seems like a simple solution, but improving air quality could help people throughout the UK help get a quieter and more restful sleep. The Asda plant is available in 'selected stores' according to the website, and not able to order online.
If you want one, best to head down to your local Asda and see if they've got some in stock.
