Aw Lili asked:


Are you suffering from snoring? Would you like to have a snoring cure? With a simple snoring exercise, you can cure your snoring and let yourself and your spouse get a nice and peaceful sleep tonight.

Snoring is a very common problem that affects many people. It is a problem caused by something blocking your airways, like throat and nose. This is often due to loose neck muscles. In this article, i will discuss about the causes of snoring and snoring exercise that can help you to stop or reduce snoring.

A. Tense jaw

One of the common blocks that makes people snore is a tense jaw. You can loosen the jaw by conducting this snoring exercise, you will then become more capable of controlling your snoring and subsequently stop your snoring.

Try these steps:

1. Concentrate on your upper and lower molars.

2. Try to make them light.

3. Open your mouth by pressing the molars. Do this as wide as you can.

4. Repeat this exercise for about ten up to twenty more times. Make sure that you are concentrating on your molars. The main purpose of the exercise is to bring the molars together which allows you to lower your jaw.

5. Now shift your attention to your throat. If you feel that there are contracting muscles, then you have discovered the tense jaw that results to snoring. This tense jaw is one that you should open up by doing this molar exercise.

6. By opening up the airway, the air can get into your lungs. It passes through the tissue and flaps back and forth without any problem because your molars have already opened up the pathway and loosened the tense jaw.

B. Weak tongue

Other common causes of snoring is a weak tongue. When you are sleeping on your back, or even if you are sleeping on your side, a weak tongue will fall back into the throat causing the breathing passage to become narrow. A loud snoring noise is produced when the air is squeezed through the narrow opening. There is a snoring exercise program that strengthen your tongue so it will no longer fall back into the throat. If the exercise is done correctly the results are permanent.

C. Weak soft palate

Now we will discuss about palate. Another cause of snoring is a weak soft palate. If the palate is weak and soft, it flops around as you breathe and causes snoring. There is a simple snoring exercise program that make you move the palate in such a way that firms it up. As your palate becomes firmer it will no longer flop as you breathe, therefore stop or reduce the snoring.

A snoring exercise program designed to stop snoring is a better choice than expensive breathing equipment or surgery. Snoring can be cured by doing snoring exercise just a few minutes per day. Whether heavy or light snoring, you can cure snoring by taking steps at home doing simple snoring exercise.

Snoring, undeniable worsens your health and sytrains relationships. There is no wonder then why too many people want to quit snoring. Also everybody needs some rest after a hectic day.

The really sad thing is snoring is not voluntary. In fact, most smokers are blissfully unaware of snoring until they are told that they snore by their partners. These people can either control their throat muscles from dangling loosely or they can initiate snoring.

It is very hard to find the correct cause of snoring because there a myriad reasons that contribute to it. Man has however devised various methods to locate the culprit. It is well known in the field of medicine that a cure can be easily found for a symptom whose cause is found. It is therefore quintessential for a person to find out the one reason that is actually aggravating his snoring.

Any problem is incurable only when its root can’t be identified. There are many reasons as to why a person snores. When we zero down on the right one, we can cure it with ease. But locating the cause has itself proven to be time consuming.

It all comes down to you realizing what went wrong. So if you identify the trigger for your problems, you can overcome it.

Smokers are found to have a greater chance to start snoring than non-smokers. Smoking is linked with way too many health hazards that can even prove life-threatening and fatal. Snoring is not fatal, but it can cause a lot of discomfort and losing sleep can indirectly lead to hypertension and cardiac problems. It makes you lose certain specific pleasures too.

The smoke and the substances in the cigarette smoke cause the esophagus’s cells to react. Thus a chain reaction sets up in a smoker’s throat and lungs that cause secretion of extra mucus to enable the lining to withstand the new harsh conditions. This leads to the accumulation of unwanted substances in your air passage which prevents free flow of air in and out of the lungs. This wildly aggravates snoring.

If you smoke, it might be the cause of you snoring. To make sure if this is the cause of you snoring, quit snoring for some time, and see the miraculous changes yourself.

Consumption of alcohol goes to the negative extreme. When a person drinks before sleeping, the neck muscles relax a bit too much. Once these muscles are relaxed in excess, they tend to slump into the free spaces in your throat. This leads of obstruction of air. When these muscles vibrate with flow of air, snoring occurs.

The obese are more prone to start snoring than those who have their weight under control. The heavier a person becomes, greater are the chances that he will start snoring when he is asleep. Snoring doesn’t start only because the person is obese. The likelihood increases because when a person becomes fatter, he will have more tissues in the airway in his neck.

Since these tissues obstruct normal flow of breath, snoring might occur.

A few others start snoring because of some form of allergy.

There are a dozen other reasons to why you snore. The only way to find out is to devise ways to find out! A general physician might be able to find out the reason. But if you want to have the best evaluation done, consult an otolaryngologist who is a specialist in throat, mouth and nose problems and their cures.

How to stop a mild snoring problem?

Friday, December 25th, 2009
mystery meat asked:


My boyfriend has a snoring problem. Sometimes its loud, sometimes it’s not, depending on how tired he is. He snores when he’s not even asleep yet and he can’t hear it. I would just whisper, you’re snoring, and he would be like SERIOUSLY? I CAN’T HEAR ANYTHING. It’s very strange, and then after that he can control it.
What are some easy ways to help his snoring problem. I know some people with severe apnea have to use a oxygen machine that pumps oxygen into their lungs at night, but is there anything less exreme?
the nose strips do not work. i forgot to mention that we tried those
