How to Stop Snoring, Definitive, Step-by-Step Guide starts with:

Step One. [01:00] 6 self-help ways to stop snoring. These lifestyle changes are a good place to begin.

Step Two. [03:00] Signposting to the right type of professional, for when self-help isn't working: https://snorer.com/stop-snorin....g-see-your-pharmacis

Step Three. [04:11] Screening for OSA. This is when a healthcare professional assesses you for OSA Syndrome (drowsiness during the day because of the breathing pauses during your sleep)

Step Four. [05:23] Diagnosis with Home Sleep Apnoea Testing. You would only need a home sleep apnoea test if screening raised concerns.

Step Five. [05:42] Prescription treatment. Explanation of first and second-line therapy e.g. oral appliance therapy (anti-snoring devices), positive airway pressure therapy, surgery including soft-tissue, hard-tissue and bariatric surgery.

CAUSES OF SNORING:
Snoring is caused by things such as your tongue, mouth, throat or airways in your nose vibrating as you breathe. It happens because these parts of your body relax and narrow when you're asleep.

You’re more likely to snore if you:
• Are overweight
• Smoke
• Drink alcohol (evening)
• Sleep on your back
• Are unable to keep your nose clear
• Use sedative medication

Sometimes it's caused by a condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA), which is when your breathing is disrupted during sleep. More about this below and in the free download.

TIPS TO STOP SNORING:
• Maintain a healthy weight and diet. Being overweight by just a few kilos can lead to snoring. Fatty tissue around your neck squeezes the airway and prevents air flowing in and out freely.
• Try to sleep on your side rather than your back. When sleeping on your back, your tongue, chin and any excess fatty tissue under your chin can relax and narrow your airway. Sleeping on your side prevents this. Check out my 'Turn over your snoring post' https://snorer.com/turn-over-youre-snoring/
• Avoid evening alcohol. Alcohol makes your muscles relax more than usual during a normal night's sleep. This may encourage the back of your throat to narrow as you breathe, which causes snoring.
• Quit or cut down on smoking. Cigarette smoke irritates the lining of your nose and throat, causing swelling and catarrh. This means airflow is decreased and you're more likely to snore.
• Keep your nose clear, so that you breathe in through your nose rather than your mouth. If an allergy is blocking your nose, speak with your pharmacist or see your GP.
• There are a range of stop-snoring treatments and devices on sale. However, most over-the-counter stop-snoring products are ineffective, potentially harmful and merely delay you from obtaining effective treatment. Read about them here: https://snorer.com/best-snore-....relief-product-witho

Devices known as Mandibular Advancement Devices (MADs), which reposition the jaw to improve airflow should be custom-made for you and only prescribed AFTER you have been screened for Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA).

OSA:
If you are drowsy during the day, or make gasping or choking noises while you sleep – please see your healthcare professional as you may have Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). If left undiagnosed and untreated, the OSA sufferer will experience multiple short and long-term health consequences.
