WHY DO PEOPLE SNORE?

If you snore, you’re not alone: Up to half of all American adults snore. It happens when air flows through your throat when you breathe in your sleep. This causes the relaxed tissues in your throat to vibrate and cause harsh, irritating snoring sounds.

Snoring may disrupt your sleep, or that of your partner. Even if it’s not bothering you too much, it’s not a condition to ignore. In fact, snoring may be a sign of a serious health condition, including:

• obstructive sleep apnea (blocked airways)
• obesity
• an issue with the structure of your mouth, nose, or throat
• sleep deprivation.

In other cases, snoring may be caused simply by sleeping on your back or drinking alcohol too close to bedtime.

15 SNORING REMEDIES
In some cases of snoring, it’s important to seek a doctor’s care in order to get the medical treatment you need to address the underlying condition.

Here are 15 remedies commonly used to treat snoring and its various causes:

1. LOSE WEIGHT IF YOU ARE OVERWEIGHT.

This will help reduce the amount of tissue in the throat that might be causing your snoring. You can lose weight by reducing your overall caloric intake by eating smaller portions and more healthy foods. Make sure you get regular exercise daily. You may also consider seeing your doctor or a nutritionist for help.

Sleeping on your back sometimes causes the tongue to move to the back of the throat, which partly blocks airflow through your throat. Sleeping on your side may be all you need to do to allow air to flow easily and reduce or stop your snoring.

3. RAISE UP THE HEAD OF YOUR BED.

Elevating the head of your bed by four inches may help reduce your snoring by keeping your airways open.
