Do These Snoring Aids Really Work?

Snoring Aids Video

Before you run down to the local pharmacy and plunk down your hard earned cash on a bunch of snoring aids that claim to cure this habit in one night, pay attention to what real people have to say about which are the best and which seem to really work.  After all, you can spend literally hundreds of dollars on those snoring aids, and some will work while some really won't.  Wouldn't you really rather know the difference beforehand?

Does a so-called snoring pillow actually work?  What do the users say?  And if they do work, just how and why?  Why can't a regular pillow do the same job?  And what is the real difference between the models, especially those that are priced so high?  Are they worth that cost or is it just a matter of a name brand?  This article will attempt to answer a few of those questions.

Throat Sprays

Many throat sprays that are advertised as snoring aids work by keeping your throat hydrated and coated all through the night.  If your throat is coated, you'll snore less even if you do breathe through your mouth.  Even throat sprays that are advertised for sore throats, cough, and allergies can work well also.  They do pretty much the same thing, by coating your throat and providing some relief from the scratchy feeling..

Snore Pillows

Also popular as snoring aids are the so-called snoring pillows.  These help to keep your head and neck propped up; if your head is in alignment, your mouth is less likely to drop open.  Snore pillows are also preferred as snoring aids for the same reason as nasal strips - they involve no medications or anything that you take into your system.  They are also usually very affordable, the basic models starting at only about $20.  For most persons who use them, snoring pillows are reportedly very effective and work to keep you sleeping on your side or stomach, and even when you do sleep on your back, your mouth stays closed.

If none of these basic snoring aids seem to work for you, it may be time to talk to your doctor.  There are prescription medications, dental devices, and even outpatient surgeries that can be recommended.
