Noise reducer

Noise reducers can be packaged differently, but overall the goal is to reduce outside noise by creating ambient or white noise. A noise reducer may be helpful to certain people, explains David Rapoport, MD, medical director of the New York University Sleep Disorders Center and associate director of the Bellevue Hospital Pulmonary Function Laboratory. Think airplanes, loud trains, and yes, snoring. "Many people are very sensitive to noise. A noise reducer gets rid of noise which will disturb you. It makes sense for the right use." He adds that some people leave the television on for background noise but that is not a true substitute for white noise.
