6 tips to prevent snoring, The hum comes from the vibration of soft tissues of the throat and oropharynx (soft palate, uvula …). To reduce these vibrations, it must either prevent the passage of air through the mouth or tonify the tissues affected or lubricate.

But not to mention products, some rules already allow the lifestyle to limit the phenomenon:

• Do not drink alcohol the evening (alcohol relaxes the tissues of the uvula and palate).

• Do not sleep on your back (it’s not easy to control its movements in sleep but there are T-shirts with a pocket in the back where you can dispose of tennis balls to make this uncomfortable position).
