I've recently come across some claims that breathing through your nose has positive benefits on your facial structure as opposed to breathing through your mouth.

Have there been any trustworthy studies on this subject or is it just complete pseudoscience?

>> No.10239028

>>10239023
I'm not sure if there are trustworthy studies but I've been a mouth breather my entire life and have all the same characteristics as the bottom pic so take that for what it's worth.

>> No.10239033

It’s definitely 100% true that nose breathing and oral posture allows for the development of a good looking person. Many people are denied that opportunity by what is essentially neglect and abuse. Said people should sue and put that money toward cosmetic surgery so they can have good lives.

>> No.10239076

>>10239023

It sounds like complete bullshit. Yeah bad breathing habits and a fucked up face are correlated but the reasonable thing to think is that the bad face genetics are what causes the mouth breathing, not the other way around.

>> No.10239085

Look up tongue thrust. Ie. Theres somd truth to your photo. I have a strong ass sharp ass jawline from genetics but a bit of the mouthbreather shit due to lifetime of mouthbreathing and tongue thrjst. Teeth also fucked from tongue thruat even after braces

Genetics have nothing to do with it. It’s allergies, environmental stressors, and not chewing tough foods. Almost no one has a genetic blueprint for a bad airway. Abusive parents and doctors are the cause, not genes. Try thinking next time.

This was what I was about to reply with, I believe firmly that Mew is sort of correct, and that peoplee with the lower image's craniofacial features are going to have breathing problems, and that people with breathing problems tend to be ugly and dysmorphic but its almost certainly just a correlation with the underlying and shared cause being trash genetics. You can definitely mitigate this by breathing properly and having correct oral posture, especially at a very young age coupled with braces and a good diet, but that's not going to make you handsome. People who have correct facial and dental development just have superior genetics and aren't at all naturally cognizant of "good oral posture" or not being mouth breathers. The virgin chad looksmaxxing meme is correct, Chads don't notice nor need to notice their good habits because they're inborn and they had a strong structural foundation to begin with.

How is it circular and fallacious? The idea being that the cranio-facial morphology is primarily informed by genetics and that it has a feedback with the function of the organism. So, someone with narrow airways, poor breathing patterns, weak facial features is bound to continuously degrade and retard the function and structure of their face. They will over time develop crooked teeth, poor head posture, ugly facial structure and weak eye sight because of the underlying propensity to be dysfunctional. Alternatively someone with good genetics will naturally engage in behaviors that exploit pathways for strengthening function and structure. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer; stupid kids use stupid studying techniques, lazy study habits and become dumber during the highest period of neuroplasticity and openness to environmental influence and the opposite for smart children. Its not circular, you're just an idiot and coping because you think that you can fix being ugly by breathing properly, you can't. You can mitigate your ugliness and breathing problems, you will never perform as well as someone with good facial genetics in any situation without expensive, dangerous and painful surgeries.

The anon I was agreeing with is only giving an explanation in line with what we know about behavioral and developmental genetics, people with good genes engage in higher fitness behaviors that reinforce the good genetics and add on to their relative advantage in their environment, vice-versa for trash genetics. I even agreed, mew'ing makes the face more robust and alleviates most breathing problems, it does not put you on par with attractive athletic people with naturally good cranio-facial development, just like eating well, exercising and being well tutored at a young age will never allow you to compete with the genetic elite intellectually. Almost all behavior and morphology is determined by genes, and selection, which are out of your control permanently.

You are the epitome of a brain let and I genuinely wish you horrible suffering in life. Kids develop poorly from chewing soft foods and being kept from exposure to allergens.

this is such a weird line of reasoning, whole popuplations have gracile jaws while others have robust skull structure. This is partially from diet and partially from selection for more aggressive males. Do you deny the role that genetics and natural selection play in the development and maintenance of biological structures and phenotypes? I get what you're getting at it just seems like you're confusing cause and effect, and coping really hard with the fact that some people are born ugly and low fitness.

Small downward grown jaws and tooth crowding are a HUGE epidemic. If you think that can be explained with genetics then you are being illogical.

Yes it makes perfect sense to me, polygenic phenos like cranio-facial and musculoskeletal structure would be extremely sensitive to mutational load and environmental toxins.

Sorry, it's far more likely that underdeveloped masseters, lack of breastfeeding, and allergies/sinusitis lead to blocked nasal passages which leads to the development of improper tongue posture and inability to breathe normally while sleeping. Poor facial growth is a disease of civilization, not genes. The hypothesis that huge populations of western people born to healthy parents without any history of genetic disease have a genetic predisposition to a narrow airway is simply absurd. In fact it's so absurd it seems you have some kind of agenda, but I can't imagine why anyone would be shilling for made-up genetic disease.

I don't know about facial structure, but I've heard that nose breathing has some benefit in terms of oxygen or air mixture that mouth breathing does not, and has some kind of detrimental cognitive implications for the latter style.

Additionally the nose is setup like a natural filtration system so you should always try to breath through your nose when possible.

>> No.10243654

Nose breathing promotes deep breathing, mouth breathing promotes shallow breathing. This affects posture and lung capacity. Deep breathes are more efficient. You use your lower stomach area which alsl helps digestion and keeping your lower belly slightly tucked in.

read your sources faggot and you never said otherwise, i even argued above that it was mostly genetic and you then said it was environmental and made strong allusions to breathing problems with only passing mention of dental deformities as being the culprit. almost all the studies suggest that diet and genetics are the cause. I would believe that an initial change in environment and behavior selected for mutations that predisposed agricultural populations to dental deformities and cranio-facial anomalies eventually producing widespread dysfunctional cranio-facial morphology and breathing. But you are just a monkey so you won’t ever do the due diligence of actually reading anything you spammed. Nigger
