good possibly a natural supp to help control snooring? i get about 4 or 5 hours sleep each night. i got to bed at 2am and wake up at 6am for work, so i cant get take good RX sleeping pills.
thanks, will rep
 
i was thinkimg the same. i was hoping to kinda put the snooring in the closet before i had to take further action and go to the doctors to see what to do.
 
Joking aside, I've heard lots of good responses to CPAP machines. Also, there's a nifty device that alters jaw position at night to prevent snoring. It's much less bulky than the CPAP.

J,
Just a theory that I've had in the back of my head for a while... it's possible that inflammatory and vasodilating supps could have a negative effect on sinus congestion and throat inflammation. Maybe it would be worth a trial of no arginine, AA, cit mal, glycogen pumps ingredients, etc etc to see if it helps :dunno: Again, just a theory
 
nice post celc5. i dont think i take any thing with those imgredients. the only thing i take is stoked,fish oil,liver protector. some time the thing that hangs in the back of the throat gets swollen and it become kinda sore....?! weird huh?

Snoring may be indicative of sleep apnea - an obstructed air passage.

For some it can be improved with a reduction in body mass/weight. For some the only treatment is a CPAP as illustrated in that picture.

No supplement is going to resolve a snoring problem.
 
im 5'10 185. im fit. but i do get a lack of sleep almost 4 to 5 hours maybe of sleep a day. i work about 45 mins from where i live and the whole home is a fight to keep my eyes open, i never had this snooring problem until i started working this new schedule.i hope its from a lack of sleep.

Sleep apnea or an obstructed air passage is not limited to those with greater body mass.

The symptom of drive time sleepiness you describe could be a sign of sleep apnea or at least an interupted sleep pattern. Pay attention to your sleep position to see if it is contributing to the snoring. Avoid alcohol and sleep aides, if you use them, as this relaxes your throat even more than normal when sleeping.

I snore a great deal, have apnea, and use a CPAP and some nights don't wear it and if I sleep in just the right position my snoring is minimal. I also have about 25lbs on you and am less an inch in height and rather quite fit and I know my body mass is a significant contributor.

Quite honestly I work 12 hour days, regularly train before work and would love to have 5 hours of sleep. ;)

Okay thats true. Piracetam can come into play here.

Sleep apnea causes localised oxygen starvation and the only thing piracetam is medically proven to do is to prevent this. So snoring ... ask her to wear ear plugs? Piracetam (perhaps choline) to ensure no resulting damage to you.

Piracetam isn't a noot? Well the problem with it is that there is such variation in response as a noot, some really do benefit from it and others (I think I'm one) don't seem to do much at all.
 
:trout:it gets pretty bad some times, last night the my wife woke up and slept on the couch. ill deff have to suggest the ear plugs...... i dont think she will like that to much, i feel a beat down coming:trout:
