Have You Tried These Natural Remedies for Snoring?

If you're among the 50% of Americans who have a snoring problem, you have probably at least heard of, and most likely tried, at least some of the following remedies. Because when you find yourself slogging through day after day after a terrible night's sleep, you'll try anything. And there's never any shortage of advice to be found, whether from friends, family, and coworkers or from the more than four million results that pop up on Google when you search for natural remedies for snoring problems.

While you've probably met people who swear by these types of remedies, the fact is, they aren't especially effective, especially compared to the CustMbite Snoring System. First, we'll look at some of the natural remedies people have tried, and then we'll look at the CustMbite Snoring System and how it works better than these so-called remedies.

1. Garlic, onion, and horseradish

These are used together to prevent drying of the nose and to reduce congestion. It is also believed that they may decrease swelling in the tonsils, which many people blame snoring on.

1. Soy milk

People recommend the use of soy milk, or other non-dairy milks like almond or coconut milk, because dairy milk can increase phlegm. This may be because of mild allergic reactions that promote congestion and close the nasal passages.

1. Extra virgin olive oil

People use this to “smooth” the airway. They believe it prevents the throat muscles from blocking the throat when you sleep.

1. Tennis balls

Don't eat them — wear them on the back of your shirt. This remedy comes from the belief that snoring only happens when you sleep on your back. If there is a tennis ball sewn into the back of your shirt, you are less likely to roll over and sleep on your back.

1. Sing at bedtime

This remedy is based on the belief that strengthening your throat muscles can reduce or eliminate snoring. Because singing tightens the muscles in your throat, people believe it can solve the snoring problem.

1. Neti pot

A neti pot looks somewhat like Aladdin's lamp. It's designed to pour a saline solution through one nostril, throughout your sinus cavities, and out the other nostril. This cleans and refreshes the nasal passages. It is used in an effort to stop snoring based on the belief that congested nasal passages are the cause of snoring.

1. Duct tape

Some people have used duct tape to hold a snoring person's mouth closed throughout the night. The idea is that snoring only happens when a person breathes through their mouth. This old wives' remedy has led to “modern” chin straps that claim to help with snoring.

Unfortunately, these remedies are not really effective at all. They are based on misinformation about what actually causes snoring. Snoring is caused by the tongue muscle relaxing when you fall asleep and partially obstructing the airway. Neither the above solutions nor the modern-day over-the-counter solutions that try to solve snoring by moving the jaw forward work. In fact, the modern solutions can cause problems like TMJ disorder or a misaligned bite.

The CustMbite Snoring System, developed by Dr. Michael Alvarez who has 40 years of experience in sleep dental medicine, works on a different theory. It is a customizable mouthguard that uses tori to gently move the tongue forward and down, moving it out of the airway to help stop snoring. In fact, it has been proven to reduce snoring by up to 50%. At only $74.99, this is a great value. The CustMbite Snoring System comes with both an upper and a lower guard. You can try each one and use the one that works best and feels the most comfortable for you.

The CustMbite Snoring System is a natural remedy in that it does not involve chemicals or any other substance to be ingested. It's customizable, comfortable, and affordable. Additionally, it was developed and is manufactured right here in the United States. Order the best natural remedy for snoring online today and leave all the silly, ineffective remedies behind.
