Children’s sleep is closely linked to how well they breathe at night. Dry air, allergies, and minor congestion can disrupt nasal comfort leading to restless nights, mouth breathing, and poor-quality sleep.

At Nadu, we focus on gentle, functional solutions that support healthy breathing and better rest.

The Nadu Refresh Nasal Spritz is a non-medicated, lightweight nasal mist designed to hydrate and soothe sensitive nasal passages, making it ideal for children who experience sleep issues related to nasal discomfort.

Key Benefits:
- Relieves nasal dryness and irritation
- Supports clearer, easier breathing
- Encourages nasal (not mouth) breathing
- Gentle and safe for regular use
- Easy to use as part of bedtime routines

By improving nasal comfort before sleep, the Refresh Nasal Spritz helps children breathe more easily, sleep more deeply, and wake feeling refreshed.

Because better sleep begins with better breathing.

Can sunburn make you sick? Surprisingly… Yes (indirectly). ☀️🤧

Sunburn doesn’t cause a cold or flu but it can make it easier for you to get sick.

Here’s why:
When your skin is damaged by strong UV, your body shifts energy into repairing it.
That temporarily lowers your immune defences for about 1–3 days.

Now add summer:
More travel. More people. More germs.

So if you’ve recently been exposed to a virus, that short immune dip gives it a better chance to take hold.

What to do after sunburn:
• Drink more water
• Sleep well
• Avoid alcohol + intense workouts
• Cool and moisturise your skin
• Stay sun-protected
• Keep distance from sick people

Bottom line:
Sunburn doesn’t give you the flu but it can make your body less ready to fight one.

At Nadu, we believe frontline health starts with everyday protection.

Nose Breathing: Why It Matters More in the Peak of Summer

Did you know mouth breathing becomes more common in hot, smoky, or allergy-heavy environments?

When air quality drops or nasal passages dry, breathing through the mouth often becomes the default. But nose breathing is designed to filter, warm, and humidify air especially important when dust, pollen, and heat stress peak.

This summer in Australia has already seen above-average temperatures and mixed rainfall forecasts, which influence air quality and pollen exposure. When you mouth-breathe, you bypass your body’s first line of defence and that can increase dryness, irritation, and downstream respiratory discomfort.

Try this small shift:
Before each meal or meeting, take three conscious nose breaths and notice the difference.

Nobody expects you to perfect your breathing overnight but supporting nasal comfort helps you stay cool and comfortable all summer.

Most of us think about breathing too late

We usually only notice our breathing when something feels off - a blocked nose, poor sleep, constant dryness.

But here’s the part that’s often missed: your nose is doing critical work every single breath.

It filters airborne particles.
It warms and humidifies the air.
It protects the lungs before they ever get involved.

When nasal health is compromised by dry air, allergens, or habitual mouth breathing, the body compensates. And over time, that compensation shows up as fatigue, disrupted sleep, or frequent irritation.

Nasal health isn’t a niche topic. It’s fundamental.

💬 When was the last time you consciously thought about how you breathe?

Signs your nasal health is slipping

Most people don’t notice until it becomes a problem:
- Frequent congestion
- Snoring or mouth breathing at night
- Decreased sense of smell
- Afternoon slump/fatigue
- Post-nasal drip
- Difficulty focusing

These are not just “minor annoyances” - they affect sleep, productivity, and overall performance.

Cognitive performance is deeply tied to oxygen efficiency. Nasal obstruction - even mild - can reduce:
- Focus
- Memory
- Decision-making
- Energy stability

Workforces that breathe better perform better.
