Market Wire, September, 2004

Chin-Up Strips are used by people who mouth breathe and oral vent during sleep. Mouth breathing can cause loud snoring. Oral venting is a term used when people mouth breathe while using Cpap therapy to treat Sleep Apnea.

FDA Indications for Use:

1. The Chin-Up Strip promotes and enhances nasal breathing to help Breathe Right nasal strips to reduce or eliminate snoring.

2. The Chin-Up Strip supports the chin (mandible) during sleep, thereby promoting and enhancing nasal breathing by reducing mouth breathing and oral venting.

DMI offers consumers non-invasive drug free snoring relief and relief from dry mouth discomfort. According to the latest data from the National Sleep Foundation, 42% of men and 31% of women snore at least a few nights a week.

Hospital sleep studies submitted to the FDA along with the 510(k) filing by DMI -- Dale Miller, Inc. The patient polysomnogram reports indicated Chin-Up Strip combined with Breathe Right nasal strip is an effective alternative treatment for primary snoring.

The FDA requires following on DMI packaging and website: "Neither Breathe Right nasal strips nor Chin-Up Strips have been shown to be effective in treating Sleep Apnea either alone or in combination." DMI does not and never has claimed Chin-Up Strips treat Sleep Apnea.

Chin-Up Strips and Breathe Right nasal strips are available at www.drugstore.com and directly from The Chin-Up Company at www.chinupstrip.com or toll free at 888-835-4563. A 30-day supply of Chin-Up Strips from DMI cost $14 plus 99 cents shipping.
