Health Tip: Solutions for Snoring

(HealthDay News) — Snoring occurs when the upper airways become narrow, says Harvard Medical School. As a result, airflow is disrupted, making tissues vibrate and produce the snoring noise.

To help alleviate snoring, Harvard Medical school suggests:

1. Reduce alcohol consumption.

2. Lose excess weight.

3. Rinse stuffy sinuses with saline before bed.

4. Use allergy medication or a humidifier.

5. Sleep on your side.

6. Quit smoking.
