Some Home Remedies for Snoring

Simple and Free Snoring Home Remedies

Larry Tulga, a route sales supervisor for a snack food distributor, was sitting next to his wife of 16 years, Annette, watching the Packers on TV. And discussing of all things home remedies for snoring.

Discussing might be putting it mildly. It was Annette who was passionately pushing they explore do-it-yourself snoring remedies that might help Larry stop snoring.

And if those failed maybe even looking into surgery, since that stops snoring for some.

Annette was so determined because Larry's snoring made some nights miserable beyond words for her. Willing to give just about any hare brained anti snoring ideas a shot.

Here's some of the free snoring home remedies on Annette's list.

For one Larry could try soft palate exercises. The idea is to strengthen the muscles in Larry's throat. "It can't hurt to try," Annette protested. "Since a common cause of snoring is a weak soft palate!"

Here's all the "workout" consists of:

Place the tip of your tongue on your palate.
Do your level best to suck hard on the back of your tongue.

That's it!

Yet when done right, you should feel the muscles of your palate tightening and straining.

If you'll play around with this, you can find the best way for you to tighten and release those muscles. And once you get the hang of it you might well be toning your palate in no time!

Another thing Larry could do would be to avoid alcohol before bedtime. Since this relaxes your muscles, including your throat muscles. And can result in air way obstruction which leads to snoring.

Also dairy products can cause mucus buildup. That can clog the throat at night too.

Obviously there home remedies for snoring are only some of the things you can do. (Ffor instance we didn't even get into a snoring mouthpiece.) Still, proper diagnosis of the true cause of your snoring is critical. Which brings up another problem for Larry. Seeing the doctor.
