Tweetable Quotes

“On today’s episode, there is somebody who did a video that is a little bit, I don’t know. I have really these big big doubts about the validity of this person who did the video that I’m going to discuss. And it has to do with making your face asymmetrical by sleeping on one’s side. You have to be really careful when you hear this guy’s video so I’ll let you judge for yourself.” (02:27) (Dr. Brian)

“On the other hand, if you would sleep on your back, that would be one way of avoiding having the nose turn to one side.” (04:43) (Dr. Brian)

“This is something, by the way, that takes years and years to develop. It’s not like you sleep on one side and you wake up and say, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m asymmetrical!’” (05:18) (Dr. Brian)

“The facial bones in kids can change with chronic mouth breathing. It does, over time, have the ability to change the bones.” (07:53) (Dr. Brian)
