Snoring has been a problem for humanity ever since people shared sleeping quarters. Not only do the loud, intermittent sawing and choking sounds bother whoever is in hearing range, but also the person snoring can suffer ill effects. In some bad cases snoring can even be associated with sleep apnea, a condition that actually awakens the sufferer several times every night, even as many as hundreds of times, seriously disturbing her/his ability to get much needed rest.

Luckily there are many things that can be done to improve the situation of someone suffering from snoring, and the people around him/her. The simplest and least intrusive way to alleviate snoring is to use an adult sleep positioner that is specially designed to eliminate snoring.

Since the main cause of snoring is the flapping of skin at the back of the throat, elevating the head a bit during the night prevents loose skin from flapping around, which causes the loud and distressing noises of snoring. The best way to elevate the head is with a wedge-shaped pillow. The wedge shape brings the head and throat into a better position, and in many cases, can completely stop nightly snoring. Try it. Your loved ones will thank you, and you’ll feel better all-day long.
