Snoring occurs when our breathing is obstructed. This can be due to a cold, or an anatomical irregularity in the nose or throat. However, the most common cause of snoring is when the muscles in and around the throat relax too much when we sleep. This causes your throat tissues to sag, narrowing the airway. The pressure at the back of the throat will rise, causing the uvula and soft palate to vibrate. It is these vibrations that create the sound of snoring.

Studies show that approximately 42% of the population snores, of this 60% are male and 40% female. Snoring is often described as Social Snoring. A more serious condition is called Sleep Apnea, which only affects 2% of the population. Snoring occurs when our breathing is obstructed. This can be due to a cold, or an anatomical irregularity in the nose or throat.

The cause of snoring is when the muscles in and around the throat relax too much when we sleep. This causes your throat tissues to sag, narrowing the airway.

Snoring may result in a decrease in quality of life in the form of cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, stress, headache, OSA, decreased sexual function and premature death.

Causes of Snoring:

  • Obstructive Sleep Apnea:

One of the key signs is breathing lapses during sleep. This is due to complete or partial collapse of the breathing pathways. People with OSA tend to snore loudly interspaced with periods of silence as breathing pauses. They resume breathing by gasping or snorting loudly.

  • Sedative Medication and Alcohol:

Sedative medication and alcohol lead to snoring due to the relaxation of muscles in the throat and tissue in the airways. It is suggested that such medications and alcohol intake be limited or avoiding it before sleeping.

  • Smoking:

It is considered that smokers snore more due to the inflammation in the breathing airways due to constant irritation of the smoke particles. By quitting smoking, the snoring decreases but it can take time.

  • Sleep Positions:

Sleeping on the back leads to higher chances of snoring as airways are compressed and pulled back. This narrows the airways and leads to heavier snoring. By sleeping on the side has shown to be more effective as lowers the snoring episodes. Lateral sleeping pillows, positional alarms are some of the ways to ensure side sleeping position to reduce snoring.

  • Anatomy of Head and Neck:

Deviated septum, small jaw, polyps and inflammation of the tonsils or enlarged tongue are certain physical issues that can lead to obstructed airways. And that leads to snoring. To prevent snoring due to these anatomical issues can be done by dental devices and surgery.

  • Congestion of Nasal passages:

If you sleep with a stuffy nose, it may lead to snoring as the narrow airways might reduce the flow of air. Nasal congestions are due to seasonal allergies, infections or deviated septum and even dry air. If the nasal congestion is not treated, it can lead to chronic snoring.

  • Obesity:

Extra layers of fat on the neck can put pressure on the airways and narrows the size. This increases the chances of airway collapse while it increases the risk of chronic and heavy snoring. Weight loss can help reduction in snoring and risk of sleep apnea.

  • Old age:

With aging, there are many changes in sleep patterns and an increase in snoring is noticed. This is because the tongue and throat muscles become weaker and that increases the vibrations when you respirate. Myofunctional therapy can help tighten the muscles and reduce snoring.

Snoring may result in a decrease in quality of life in the form of cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, stress, headache, OSA, decreased sexual function and premature death.

There are many good reasons for this. Firstly, it probably bothers the ones who have to listen to it at night. Secondly, it is detrimental to your health.

International studies show that snorers have a reduced quality of life, due to migraines, headaches, cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure, decreased sexual function and premature death.

One should use Asonor every evening before going to bed. Please avoid eating, drinking or brushing your teeth after taking Asonor, as this will reduce the effectiveness of the product.

Tilt your head back and pump into each nostril until you can feel the solution in your throat. Usually, 4 to 6 pumps in each nostril are sufficient. The liquid solution should not remain in the nose, as the effect takes place once it can be felt in the throat.

The pump delivery system has been designed to work in any direction for easy application and deliver a “jet-stream” of the solution rather than a spray or atomization (which other nose drops products use) to avoid the solution staying in the nose.

Generally, Asonor will be effective from the first night, but in rare cases the effect will not take place for up to 14 days after beginning of use.
