Snoring is a state of shortness of breath that occurs in a sleeping person, when the muscles of the palate and larynx relax and sag. The breathing gap decreases, as a result, breathing becomes difficult, and because of the vibrations of the air that does not pass well in the airways, the person begins to make snoring sounds.
Fighting with snoring is difficult, because people snore in different ways: someone with the nose, someone with the mouth, someone with the tongue. Snoring not only brings inconvenience to surrounding sleeping people, but is very dangerous to health and even to the life of a snoring person. The most dangerous consequence of snoring is death from stopping breathing in a dream. This is because the breathing gap can once overlap with relaxed muscles completely.
