Proven Snoring Remedies You Should Try
3
Snoring is a popular joke in the media that can
be anything but funny to those who are actually
affected by this common health condition.
4
Not only is snoring disruptive to those hoping to
get a good nights rest, but it can also indicate
more serious health problems such as sleep apnea.
5
If you or a loved one has a problem with snoring,
then try these proven remedies to find some
relief.
6
on Your Back
AVOID SLEEPING
7

• When you sleep on your back, your mouth can
  naturally fall open and exacerbate snoring.

8

• If you find yourself ending up on your back
  despite your best efforts, try using pillows to
  keep yourself in the right position.

9

• Placing a tennis ball into a sock and sewing it
  to the back of a pajama top is another old remedy
  that can cause you to...

10

• roll back over on your stomach in response to
  the slight discomfort it causes if you lay on
  your back.

11
A HUMIDIFIER
TURN ON
12

• If you live in a dry climate, then it is possible
  that the air is contributing to your snoring
  problem.

Dry air increases congestion by drying out your
nasal membranes and throat.
13

• This in turn restricts your airways so that
  vibrations occur every time you breathe.

Humidifying the air in your bedroom at night can
stop this from happening.
14
ORAL APPLIANCE
TRY AN
15

• Sometimes, the positioning of your mouth during
  sleep can cause snoring due to the way your jaw
  and soft tissues fit together.

16

• If this is the cause of your snoring, then an
  oral appliance can be worn at night to keep your
  mouth in proper alignment and your airways open.

17

• For best results, skip the ones sold over-the
  counter since an incorrect fit can cause
  discomfort and poor results.

18

• Instead, it is best to have one fitted by an
  orthodontist who can help you select the correct
  style and have it custom made to fit your mouth.

19
Elevate Your Head
20

• Snoring is sometimes caused by your tongue
  falling backwards into your throat as you sleep,
  and you can use gravity to help keep it in place.

21

• Adjusting the height of your head can be
  accomplished by trying out different types and
  amounts of pillows.

22

• Just make sure not to raise your head too high
  since this could also restrict your airway.

23

• Raising the head of your bed is another option
  that can be done by placing books or boards
  beneath the legs of your bed frame.

24
Skip the Sedatives
25

• Those who experience disrupted sleep often use
  sedatives at night.

26

• However, sleep medications and alcohol can
  increase snoring due to their relaxing effect
  upon the soft tissues in your throat.

27

• As these tissues swell, air is restricted, and
  the dreaded snoring is often louder due to the
  deeper breathing that sedatives can cause.

28

• Although snoring is a frustrating condition that
  can have many causes, it is important to keep
  trying to find the best method to increase your
  ability to breathe well at night.

29

• Typically, some minor lifestyle changes, such as
  losing weight and avoiding allergens, combined
  with other proven remedies are all it takes to
  finally enjoy a peaceful night of sleep.
