Snoring - it's a probably that's haunted many wives and many siblings since the beginning of time, since before they knew what it was called. Happily, it's not a disease or a sickness - it's a physical condition that can be handled.
A blocked airway causes snoring. That means that just about anyone can become a snorer. A kid could become a snorer. An old man could become a snorer. It doesn't matter what gender you are either - you could just as easily become one.
Sadly, many still believe that obese people tend to snore more than skinny ones. That's just not true. Skinny people can snore just as easily as fat people and vice versa.
There are a bunch of anti-snoring devices out there to try for someone who wants to get rid of them. Anti-snoring pillows are particularly famous, but not necessarily more effective.
Anti-snoring pillows attempt to position your head in such a way that whatever's been clogging up your throat stops doing so. Clearing that blockage could potentially remove the snoring without have to do anything drastic.
Nasal strips are promoted as working in a way similar to anti-snoring pillows. They both acknowledge that the problem lies in a respiratory blockage. While anti-snoring pillows adjust the position of the head, nasal strips simply open up passages and make sure that there's nothing getting in the way.
If you're looking to use drugs or even alcohol to solve your snoring woes, you may be going too far. You may in fact be making it worse. These actually end up relaxing the throat, which leads to things like your tongue or your pharynx blocking your airway and causing the snoring - or even making it worse.
It's best to try a wide variety of methods. The cause of snoring differs from person to person, which means that the method that actually beats it varies too.
