Ad said you're losing braincells by snoring in your sleep etc etc.

They sell this quietlab mouthpiece for like $50.

Is it just a scam and am I actually losing braincells everyday by snoring?

See an ENT/sleep specialist to get an overnight oxygen test - some snoring is only cosmetic - other snoring is a serious issue that can induce narcolepsy-like situations.

If your snoring is serious and you're lacking restful sleep one of the most common prescriptions is a CPAP which will be absolutely life changing and wonderful.

It's hard to tell just how low energy you are until you overcome it because your body will keep pumping you full of chemicals to try and keep you alive and going.

Get a proper sleep study, see an ENT and sleep physician, if you are overweight lose some, sleep on your side.
