So what are some of the self-help things you can do to minimise or eradicate snoring?

Well for a start try to sleep on your side as this allows the floppy skin at the back of the throat to fall to one side and this will help clear the airway to allow increased air intake.

Note: Contoured pillows such as the memory foam CompleteSleeprrr, apart from their obvious spinal alignment benefits, are said to be of benefit in minimizing snoring when in the side sleeping position. Your sub conscious says “this is a good position, I’m comfortable in this position” … so you will probably stay in that side position for longer and that’s good for helping to minimize light snoring (see Natural Remedies segment at end of this article)..

Sleep on your side - opening your airways clear.

Start a sleep routine - Don't hang out in your bedroom, it should be for sleeping only.

Don't drink alcohol or smoke if you want to get a pleasent sleep!

Exercise during the day or after work, this helps sleep significally.

Eat small amounts of food more often.

Avoid alcoholic drinks prior to bedtime. Reason is that alcohol relaxes the muscles around the throat, and this will make everything floppier. The floppier things are around the airway, the greater the constriction for air to flow.

Exercise. Tighten and tone. Get the weight down. Eat smart. Minimize take-out.

Eat small amounts more often. Minimize your intake of dairy foods as these produce mucous. Avoid a heavy meal in the evenings. And avoid sedatives and antihistamines prior to bed. Don’t smoke.

Avoid being overtired. Establish regular sleep patterns.
