Snoring is the sound of air trying to make it through the narrowed air passages in your throat. Having a large Adam’s apple and a thick tongue can contribute. Also being overweight, drinking, and smoking. Snoring is not particularly bad, but sleep apnea, which is what happens when no air gets through for 10 seconds at a time, can lead to serious health problems and even death. To defeat sleep apnea naturally, lose weight, limit your drinking, stop smoking, and sleep with your head elevated. Sweet dreams to you!
