Believe it or not, your nose is not just a decorative object found on your face, it really has a purpose.

It is extremely important to keep the nose clear so it is possible to breath through the nose.

It has been found that air exchange into the sinuses occurs twice as rapidly with nasal breathing.

The air exchange will reduce the likelihood of bacteria growing in the sinuses.
