Last but not least, being overweight can have a negative impact, too, because excess fat deposits in your throat narrows the airway space. A useful way to pinpoint the reasons why you snore is to keep a sleep diary to monitor snoring.

If you are overweight, even losing a bit of weight can reduce fatty tissue in the back of the throat and decrease or even stop snoring. Keep your bedroom moist with a humidifier, because dry air can irritate mucous membranes. When it comes to sleep posture, try to sleep on your side rather than on your back. However, if your own efforts to stop snoring do not help, consult your doctor as snoring can sometimes be a warning sign of more serious problems. Be particularly aware of the following symptoms: You snore loud and heavily and are tired during the day. Or you stop breathing, gasp or choke during sleep.
