    You need to see the doc to find out what is causing your snoring. The doc will order a sleep study. If it turns out to be sleep apnea you can use nasal pillows instead of a mask. Hubby uses those and loves them.

    Breathe-Right Strips they work wonders and sometimes you only have to wear them for a week. They re-teach your body to breathe through the nose instead of the mouth (that causes snoring). It opens your nasal cavatiy during sleep. If that fails sleep on your stomach, it reduces the snoring.

    Snoring is a very serious symptom of sleep apnea. So please get a sleep study done to see if you have it. And if they say you do then please wear the CPAP mask, it could be a matter between Life and Death. Other options are surgery like having your tonsils removed or other soft tissue from your throat area, or even having your jaws broken and realigned. It doesn’t matter how young you are or how skinny anyone can have it even infants.

    If my husband gains three pounds then he snores. If he loses the pounds then he doesn’t snore. Both his brothers are over weight and have sleep apnea.

    Try this exercise,

    This is to increase the strength of the muscle at the top of your pallet the soft area.

    Ensure that you have adequate breath or regular breathing in between the effort.

    Hold your breath for just as long as you feel comfortable. Now try to stretch your throat area from inside as if trying to swallow something with out opening your mouth or letting out your breath, this may open the epiglottis to connect the lungs with the stomach. Repeat it for as many times you want. Till you feel the strength of the muscle has increased naturally the snoring will stop
