Are you among the approximately 1.8 billion people worldwide that suffer from chronic snoring? If so, then I’m quite sure that just like all those other people you too have considered the problem in depth and are searching for some real stop snoring remedies. In this article I would like to share with you some of the best solutions that I’ve found to be helpful with my own obnoxious snoring issues, and believe me when I tell you that, I too was once a notoriously loud snorer!
Here are six of the best tips that I can recommend to assist you in naturally solving this problem over the
long-term.
Tip 1 – Adjust Your Sleep Position:
People who snore on a consistent basis often do so because they sleep on their back, allowing the tongue to ease back into the throat which causes the airway tract to become semi-blocked, resulting in choppy, irregular breathing. To combat this try sleeping in more of a sideways position, or if you just can’t sleep comfortably any other way except on your back, try adjusting or tilting your head slightly upward. I was able to accomplish this by adding another pillow under my head as I slept. It allowed my tongue and soft palate to remain more stationary which kept my throat clear for normal breathing.
Tip 2 – Could You Stand to Lose A Few Pounds?
This was definitely a big one for me. You see, one of the most common reasons for chronic snoring for many folks simply has to do with being overweight. The more overweight you are the more fatty tissue that builds up around your muscles, and the throat is no exception. As you sleep, your throat muscles and breathing become very relaxed. This allows the tissues in your throat (especially the soft palate) to vibrate excessively as you draw air into your lungs, and this is what causes the horrible sounds known as snoring.
So take inventory of your health and weight. Speaking from my own experience I can tell you without a doubt that once I started shedding the lbs. my snoring became less and less obnoxious. I’m not even talking about radical weight lose here. For most people it just takes a little bit to see effective results. I lost about 7% of my total body weight (I went from 230 to 210), and it made all the difference in the world. I’m sure it will for you too!
Tip 3 – Cut Back On the Booze.
This really applies to drinking right before bed. Because alcohol can severely depress the central nervous system, it can cause the tissues in your throat, tongue, and jaw to become very flaccid as you sleep. This of course can result in those tissues shifting and moving around a lot as you rest which will really amplify you snoring. So simply put – don’t drink alcohol right before going to bed!
Tip 4 – No Smoking Before Bed!
When you smoke cigarettes (or anything for that matter) before sleeping it produces excess mucus in your throat and sinuses. This can add substantial blockage to your upper and lower airway tracts resulting in, you guessed it, increased snoring. This is a tough one I know. I used to smoke before I turned in every night. But when I made the decision to stop this habit (before going to bed that is), it helped me out tremendously. If you’re really addicted and absolutely need to have a fix prior to bed, try chewing some nicotine gum or using an electronic cigarette. Anything else. Trust me, it makes a huge difference.
Well, I sure hope that you have found these stop snoring remedies to be helpful. As I’m sure you know, snoring can be a real pain in the you know what for yourself and your partner in particular. If you commit to doing the things I have pointed out above though, I have no doubt that you will see some real improvements. Good Luck. relx 電子煙
