Singers have been doing this for at least 150 years :-)

Somewhat to our suprise, a quite measurable improvement effected among a majority of the participating volunteers. Several different modes were applied....all with beneficial effect. Just simple humming of a favorite tune for 5 or so minutes twice a day, proved beneficial. However, the most benefit came among those who utilized a conventional "deep breathing" technique; one including an in-breath accompanied by diaphragm/stomach expansion.....followed immediately by the humming generation. Depending upon ones lung capacity, the hum will last about 5 to 10 seconds as the spent air is exhausted to completion of the exhalation. Best results were obtained through insuring that the tongue does not rest against the teeth...or the mouth sides/roof.....during exhalation. >> -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
