The houseplant that could stop you from snoring

Is this too good to be true?  - by Livia Gamble

The houseplant that could stop you from snoring
Mikkel Vang

Anyone who has slept next to a snorer knows all too well what it feels like to be sleep deprived.

The good news is, NASA scientists believe they have discovered a simple way to put an end to snoring: a pineapple plant.

According to multiple news reports, NASA claims “pineapple plants produce oxygen and boost air quality at night which could improve sleep quality and cut out those snores.”

To hear more about the benefits of house plants tune in to The Daily Home Edit:

Want one of these in every room! Did you know the pineapple plant is one of the most purifying plants by night?! Most plants produce oxygen during the day (photosynthesis) but this bad boy does it by night (crassulacean acid metabolism).🌛Studies prove how it strongly improves the air quality and thus contributes to better sleep by reducing sleep apnea or some snoring symptoms! 😴

Jumping on the bandwagon, UK supermarket chain Asda is stocking the plant, marketing it as a 'miracle' cure. 

Phil Smith, Asda Plant Buyer, said: "Snorts, snuffles and splutters affect a quarter of Brits, so for those 16 million snorers, Asda's Pineapple Plant could be a dream come true – even more-so for sleep-deprived partners. 

"For those lucky enough to sleep through the night without the disturbance of snoring, the plant is a chic addition to the home which is easy to care for and adds a little touch of The Tropics to any room."

For anyone looking to purchase a pineapple plant in Australia, Bunnings sometimes stocks decorative pineapple plants, or contact your local nursery.
