Curb snoring with lifestyle changes

Lifestyle changes that can help to curb snoring.

Snoring can undermine the quality of sleep. Lifestyle changes that can help to curb snoring:
  • Try losing weight - even just 10 pounds.

  • Instead of sleeping on your back, try sleeping on your side.

  • Avoid alcohol and caffeine.

  • Don't eat large, heavy meals - particularly within about two hours of heading to bed.

  • Don't take a sedative, which relaxes the muscles in your throat and increases snoring.
