FAQ's | 8 Snoring remedies suggested by our users


Snoring occurs when there is a vibration of your soft palate (the back part of the roof of your mouth). A number of factors cause this. The muscles supporting the opening of the upper airway in the back of the throat relax during sleep. Extra tissue in the palate and uvula, the fleshy piece between the tonsils-vibrates with each breath, and these vibrations actually cause the sound of snoring. In some people, the airway has a tendency to close at any point. Narrowing of the airway will cause turbulence and the noises of snoring.


Symptoms of Snoring

Nasal Noise when you sleep

Low to high pitch , irregula or regular pattern sound when you sleep. May be accompanied by heavy breathing.


Snoring Causes

Snoring Symptoms, Causes, Remedy and Diet

Muscle tone of the tongue

During sleep the muscle tone in your tongue and soft palate tends to decrease. They become more relaxed and can collapse together. This contributes to snoring. Other soft tissues, such as tonsils and tongue, can produce sounds that add to or change the quality of the snoring. The position of the sleeper affects the amount of snoring. Lying on your back allows your tongue to fall back toward your throat and block your airway; so you are more likely to snore when you are lying on your back.

Blockage of airway

Anything that obstructs your airway will also contribute to snoring. For example, you are more likely to snore if you have large adenoids or a large tongue or if your nasal passages are swollen from a cold or allergies. Enlarged tonsils and adenoids are the primary cause of snoring in children.

Age and other factors

Age is also a factor. Older people tend to snore more because muscle tone tends to decrease with age. Other factors also aggravate snoring; alcoholic beverages, certain medications, and sheer physical exhaustion may be associated with heavy snoring.

There's a ring, that's now available for $45 to stop snoring, but you can do the same thing as the ring for free. Massage the pinkie fingers of both hands. Press and hold(for 3 to 5 mins.)the first joint and knuckle, that should stop it.

Aromatherapy

suggested by T on Monday, July 9, 2007

My husband had a horrible snoring problem, and being claustrophobic, could not use the breathing machine his doctor recommended. We came across marjoram oil as a cure. It has lowered the incidence and how loud he snores (he still does, but not as bad). On a scale of 1 to 10, he was a 15, now he's a 5.
