Generally, these foods should be avoided by snorers; or, at least, they should not be consumed near bedtime.

We’ve also noted that excess weight can lead to snoring, as it has the dual effect of enlarging the flesh of the neck (thus providing more tissue/skin for the air to vibrate against), and reduce efficiency of the lungs, thus requiring the body to compensate by pushing harder to expel carbon dioxide (thereby increasing the force of wind through the airway).

However, there are some foods that are purported to be good for snorers; which means, of course, that they can possibly help alleviate some degree of snoring; or perhaps wipe it out completely! (Hey, it’s possible!).  These anti-snore-friendly foods (i.e. foods that tone the trachea) include:

ü      mustard greens

ü      pears

ü      thyme

ü      horseradish

ü      onions

ü      garlic

ü      leeks

ü      scallions

ü      lobster

ü      seaweed
