Snoring is the sound you make, while sleeping, due to the vibration in the respiratory structures. In this situation, the air movement gets obstructed while breathing, resulting in the sound. The throat or pharynx is a muscular tube that relaxes and decreases in size when you are sleeping.

There are several ways you can stop snoring in mild cases. Snoring is mainly caused by any narrowing on the passage of air through your throat. There can be several different reasons though for snoring. It can be hereditary, age, weight, sedative intake, allergies, sleeping position, among others. The tissue in the throat is soft. Because of this, it is prone to swelling or enlargement and if that happens even sleeping on your back can make the airway tighter leading to friction of muscles that in turn becomes the sound of snoring.

I think these two cures for snoring are very good ones and have worked for many people.

Try An Extra Pillow - Sleeping Position - One of the best stop snoring home remedy that I can offer you is to try and change your sleeping position. Did you know that by lying on your back you increase the chances of snoring at night? Try falling asleep on your side or stomach at night. It is much harder to snore in these positions. A little trick is to use a pillow on you side to prevent yourself from rolling onto your back. Keep you neck straight. Any pillow that kinks in your neck can make you snore. Pillows elevate your head, but they also may increase your snoring level, unless you raise yourself about 4 inches off the bed. It sometimes helps to use a wedge shaped pillow that raises you head and torso which keeps your neck straight.

Herbs To Help Snoring - While there is no one herb that is a snoring cure all, combination’s of various herbs have proven to be effective for many people. A combination of passion flower and peppermint leaf powder has provided some excellent results when it comes to helping mild or moderate bouts of snoring.
