  Author : Dr. Sheikh Jeelani   / BNYS | FTECH

Snoring is unavoidable! Occasionally, everyone does snore; if frequency increases, it kills the quality of sleep, not only yours but also of your family members and roommates. Apart from irresistible irritation, it increases the risk of health issues. But, sleeping in a separate room isn’t the solution for snoring. Unfortunately, there is no cure for snoring…Snoring can’t be cured. The good news is that it there is a successful treatment for snoring.


Triggers for Snoring:


1.    Age


Snoring in middle is often due to the narrow throat and decreased tone, which is characteristic of that age.


2.    Gender


Men have narrower air passages than women and are more likely to snore. A narrow throat, a cleft palate, enlarged adenoids, and other physical attributes that contribute to snoring are often hereditary.


3.    Over Weight


It is one of the reasons for snoring. Fatty tissue and poor muscle tone contribute to snoring.


4.    Nasal and Sinus Problem


If you’re suffering from respiratory problems, it can lead to snoring. Sinus infection home remedy is quite effective.


5.    Sleeping Position


Sleeping flat on your back causes the flesh of your throat to relax and block the airway.


Alcohol intake, smoking and taking certain medications can increase muscle relaxation leading to increased snoring.


Remedies to Control Snoring:


Thankfully there are many other effective home remedies for snoring and fix this horrifying track.


1.    Cardamom Powder


In a glass of warm water, take a half spoon of cardamom, mix well and consume it before going to bed. Cardamom gives you sleep for sure because of its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It is a good source of Vitamin C, iron, calcium, and, magnesium.


2.    Milk and Turmeric Powder


For one cup of warm milk, add two tea spoons of turmeric and a pinch of pepper powder. It clears the nasal block.  Drink before bedtime.In addition to having sound sleep, combination of milk and turmeric helps in treating diarrhea, cold and cough, and also control the problem of arthritis.


3.    White Bulb


Garlic cures inflammation in the lungs and has many health benefits. So, include garlic in all your foods or you may eat them directly. You can as well have Garlic supplements once a day.


4.    Obesity


Over weight is a reason for snoring. Losing even a little bit of weight can reduce fatty tissue in the back of the throat and decrease or even stop snoring. It is a popular remedy for snoring.


5.    SOS


Sleeping on your Side can rectify your snoring problem. If you snore, try to avoid sleeping on the back.


Sleeping on Back causes air flow to be rough and loud instead of smooth and quiet like it is supposed to be.


6.    Elevate your Head


Elevate your head by using the extra pillow to halt snoring. It opens your airways.


Apart from the home remedies to stop snoring, try to make few changes in your lifestyle. Use some medical devices like nasal strips, humidifier and mouth guards.


Snoring in spite of the remedial measures and complicating into “sleep apnea” calls for immediate medical advice. If this problem occurs, more frequently, consult a doctor.


Snoring creates a Gap in Relationship


If you value your relationship, make it your priority to find a cure for snoring, so you both can grab a sound sleep.
Discuss with your partner, work together to stop or at least reduce snoring.
