Snoring is a relatively common disease. Previously, everyone thought that snoring was the performance of sleeping incense. In fact, snoring is not only not the performance of sleeping incense, but also a terrible disease. If it is serious, it may cause death. So, how should snoring be alleviated? Here are two dietary remedies that help alleviate snoring.
then, what is the reason for snoring
Obesity: obesity is one of the most important causes of snoring. Because the airway of obese people is narrower than that of normal people, when they are awake in the daytime, the airway remains open when the muscles of the throat contract, so the airway will not be blocked. However, when sleeping at night, the nerve excitability decreases, the muscles relax, the pharyngeal tissue is blocked, and the upper airway collapses. When the air flow passes through the narrow part, it will generate eddy currents and cause vibrations, so that bursts of snoring will occur.
Causes of nose: deviation of nasal septum, nasal polyps, hypertrophy of nasal turbinate, congestion and hypertrophy of nasal mucosa, chronic rhinitis, etc. will lead to snoring in sleep.
Causes of throat: enlargement and hypertrophy of tonsils and adenoids, hypertrophy of uvula, hypertrophy and drooping of soft palate, hypertrophy of tongue, narrowing or blockage of upper respiratory tract can all lead to obstructive sleep apnea.
Cardiovascular disease: snoring is naturally related to cardiovascular disease, because habitual snorers often have hypoxemia caused by apnea to varying degrees, resulting in increased blood pressure.
Surrounding environment: the frequency of snoring is related to the influence of the surrounding environment. Snoring is a way for the human body to react directly to external sound interference after entering a dormant state. The greater the external sound interference, the greater the snoring sound and the higher the frequency of snoring. Compared with a relatively quiet environment, the probability of snoring is significantly reduced, and even a good night’s sleep and no longer snore. Therefore, a good sleep environment is very important, which is described in detail in the resources.
