Prevention's Quick Fix: The 5 Best home remedies for snoring

What I am sick and tired of is all of the ads showing the man as always being the guilty one snoring. Well excuse me! My wife is the one who sounds like a "drunken sailor" at night! I am the one who lays there for hours and after having been kept awake for long enough I finally get up and go to the other bedroom! She has tried several things. She went to the Dentist and got an $800.00 mouth-appliance made to help cure the problem. First night she wore it I thought the house was going to fall down from the vibrations! Needless to say, it did not work. Of course she is embarrassed about the situation and also frustrated that we are not able to sleep together. Gotta go, I'm sleeeeeepy!

Thanks for this list! My dad uses ZQuiet to help him not snore and have a better night's sleep. It's an anti-snoring device that is pretty similar to the mouthguard idea. It's helped him so much, no if only my would get one, they could start sleeping in the same bed again. :)

I think that if a company slightly modified these items and sold them as items to specifically target snoring they would make a lot of money. I also think that if people would take this advice they would get better sleep and be more productive. This could lead to more money which is helpful during tough economic times.

Be very aware that the oral appliance (a boil and bite) that they are referring to in the article can cause other problems not associated with the snoring. It can cause problems with the TMJ or jaw joint, can cause tired muscles in the face, could possibly worsen the snoring, cause headaches or other neurological events, up to and including possible heart problems or even death.
Not everyone has a problem with snoring, is just limited to snoring alone. My advice is to seek a medical or dental professional who specializes in treatment of sleep apnea to determine if you have any type of apneic events, prior to buying a "mail order" or Over-the-counter appliance to simply treat the snoring.
I am not saying that you can't "try" the item before you seek the advice of a medical or dental professional. It just makes sense to everyone I have talked to about this, that the advice should come from a medical or dental professional, rather than some spokesperson on an infomercial, about it's true effectiveness.

A pillow pressed and held over the mouth and nose will permanently cure a snoring problem,but may have other significant side effects

Yes, Since I started to feel uncomfortable with my sleep time(hour) that has begun my snooring session and sometime I woke-up hearing my own snoore. Then, later I had problem with my health as I went under the operation table for the colon. That also was the start of finding out that my aorta was small and then it was replaced. The results of those operations after when the rehabilitation process of excerzisee " I got insomnia, then I was given sleeping tablets, that resulted too Noisy Snooting.
I read somewhere that with the new way to stop the snooring is to have something that can keep the mouth steady closed. I tried tieing a bandana under my mouth and make a bow at the top of the head to steady the jaw. It worked perfectly, "But" why there is the "But?" my friends seen me on that situation. They laughed a lot for I looked like a Dead Person. Then, I sewed a stretchable cloth with adjustable snap at both ends over my head. This worked perfectly. Then I saw that women are using the stretchable headbands and it comes in different colors. These headbands worked perfectly and I can choose colors that I like to use to keep my mouth and my jaw steady.
Now I have colorful dreams and no more very annoying snooring. Try this and discover that stretchable headband works, and it stops the snooring.

i've got the cure for snoring and it works. Have the ol' lady give you an airstart just before bed and you'll sleep deep and quiet.

I got the sobakawa cloud pillow and it improved my snoring considerably. Now if I start snoring loudly I wake myself up and realize that I'm not using the pillow. That pillow rocks. I know that I am still snoring though but from what people tell me I am snoring much less and it's not half as bad as it was before. I would still like to get a mouth guard so I can stop snoring completely.

Yada yada yada. Try finding out what you're eating that you're allergic to. How's that for a solution? 5 years of snoring and I took him off wheat in response to an infection and voila! No more snoring. Who knew both my son and my husband were allergic to wheat?

A quality custom fit dental sleep appliances cost $350-700 to produce plus chair time for fittings and adjustments. so the hard costs to the dentist could be easily over $500. i produce a lot of these and trust me--they don't add a lot to my bottom line. Some things, like a patients overall health, is worth more than profit in my eyes. Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a huge health problem--snoring is a symptom of OSA. if you or your partner snore, please have a sleep study to make sure you are not at risk, then figure out what treatment is right for you. if treated correctly a custom fit device can even last 4-5 years, well worth the investment in your health.

col c posted it first but I thought of it too: Earplugs!

TREAT THE SNORE!! GET A CPAP! FRESH,HUMIDIFIED AIR W/LITTLE PRESSURE WILL SAVE YOUR HEALTH!!!!DON'T THINK SO....LET THE SNORE RUIN YOUR HEALTH.

you can do all of that or you can try an essential oil "marjam". All you do is open the jar and place it on your nightstand at night. It's truly amazing - I bought 1 small jar several years ago at a home improvement fair, and it really works. Easy to find on the internet.. just search for essential oils.

I'm 5'8, 120 pounds. I'm not overweight but I snore. My problem is is that my jaw is a little farther back in my throat and my tongue sometimes blocks my airways. That is technically a form of "sleep apnea". All that condition is is something to say you don't sleep as well as you could. The mouth guard would probably be perfect for me, but recently I've started running more and working out a lot, and now I'm super energized anyway and I've seemed to fix my problem. And now I don't need to spend $1000.

weight does have some to do with it. My husband never snored until about 7-8 years ago. He gained almost 60 lbs in those years and now he snores like a freight train!!!!!!!

heavy drinkers snore, don't drink, go sober....put a pillow over their face : ) they can't breath...wakes them every-time...then roll them over on the side........or sleep in another room.

whatever!

Zepplin...I finally convinced my husband to have a sleep study done. He was diagnosed with mild-moderate apnea. Trust me, after 25 years, I'm finally getting a good night's sleep. And since the CPAP, so is he! I got used to the "white noise" in just a few days.

No. 2 worked for me. Like a charm.
