Snorers helped by Liposuction of the Tongue
I just came across this article about tongue size. Yes, studies have found that there’s a close link between fat content of the tongue and BMI. So if you are overweight, your tongue will be larger and with that, you are at a great risk for snoring. Sounds plausible, so will the next solution for people with sleep apnea, be a little liposuction to the tongue? Is that even possible?
I also wonder, in the coming years, will they start measuring tongue fat or density at the gym? Will there be a whole new wave of workout videos targeting tongue exercises? Will women start saying things like, “Oh man that cake went straight to my tongue!” Just kidding. Hmmm, does Gene Simmons, from KISS, snore? He might be game for bit of tongue lipo. LOL
