There are hundreds of solutionsanswer the question how to stop snoring.
Many of them can work.
However, many others stop snoring by keeping you awake all night! The problem with devices, sprays, and pills is that they are temporary solutions.
They force you to use them for long periods of time.
Then, after a while, many solutions stop working.
Moreover, each one only solves one or two causes that lead to snoring.
Some devices help with allergies and others help reposition your body so that you don't lie on your back.
This means that one solution will work for somebody else, but not for you.
This is a major reason of why there is often a wide range of opinions on the effectiveness of snoring solutions.
You'll also find that most solutions will make no mention of the causes that they don't address.
They may seem to work for all causes of snoring.
An example of where this is important is if you do not have a nasal obstruction.
In this case, then you should avoid solutions that only address this problem.
Many people don't even consider this, causing them go on a treadmill of constantly trying out new products.
However, if you determine the cause of your snoring, then you're going to be able to find the solution that works for you much quicker.

1. Humidifier.
   Some people find that a humidifier helps with their snoring.
   These are ideal for those that have seasonal snoring when the air is dry.
   Often dry air leads to congestion and stuffiness.
   
2. Put a tennis ball in a shirt pocket and go to sleep with it on backwards.
   During the American revolutionary and civil war, they did this same technique to stop snoring with cannon balls sewn onto soldiers back.
   This prevented detection by the enemy.
   It works by naturally forcing the snorer to sleep on his side.
   Again, this solution is only going to work if snoring occurs when you sleep on your back.
   If you sleep on your stomach, it's not going to be effective.
   You can also buy devices at the store that perform this function.
   
3. Mandibular splints.
   These are dental appliances that help to hold your jaw forward.
   This keeps your tongue from falling backwards.
   These devices help if your tongue falling into your throat is causing the problem.
   They are a popular solution, but they also can be expensive when they require a fitting by a doctor.
   There are countless more oral devices that can help position your tongue and hold up your soft palate to reduce snoring.
   
4. Anti-snoring pillows.
   These readjust the way the snorer sleeps in one of two ways.
   The first way is to put the snorers head up at an angle to open up airways.
   Many people find these pillows uncomfortable.
   The other way is that the pillow forces the snorer to sleep on his or her side.
   
5. Nasal strips.
   These are a popular purchase.
   If your snoring is caused by a nasal obstruction, then you should try them.
   Related to this, there are also strips for your chin that prevents the mouth from falling open.
   They increase nasal breathing and can be used at the same time as nasal strips.
   

In conclusion, a key point about many of these devices is that they are only temporary solutions.
If you think you have sleep apnea, then you need to seek medical treatment, even if one of these devices seems to work for you.
