Mouth taping is one of the latest health trends on TikTok, and while there are some health benefits to it, most experts don't suggest it.
The idea behind mouth taping is that you tape your mouth shut before you go to sleep, so you're forced to breathe through your nose. This is said to have some health benefits, like improving your sleep quality and helping with allergies.
But there are risks associated with mouth taping, like increased snoring, gasping for breath, and even suffocation. For these reasons, most experts don't recommend trying mouth taping unless you've talked to your doctor about it first.
Though there is no doubting the entertaining and creative potential of TikTok, it’s important to remember that trends on the app can be dangerous. Before following along with any challenge or trend, take a moment to consider the risks involved- both physically and emotionally. With a little common sense and caution, you can enjoy TikTok safely without putting yourself in danger.
I personally like TikTok for the food hacks.
