Answer 1

There are so many reasons. One that I haven’t seen mentioned is the mental health benefits. Breathing through your nose helps regulate your physiology and keeps anxiety in check by keeping your heart rate down. This also helps during exercise. Mouth breathing also makes you dumber. Also your sinuses cavities shrink if you don’t breath through your nose but the good news is that the more you breathe through your nose the more they stay open and therefore the easier it becomes to breathe through your nose.
