As you can imagine, because of that seriousness, a number of people are desperate to end snoring; either their own snoring, or that of a partner. And as you can just as easily imagine, that desperation has inspired an array of so-called solutions; some of which are effective and safe, and others that are risky and exploratory.

Unfortunately, because the problem of snoring is so acute its actually fatal in some cases, and you cant get more acute than that! There exists widespread confusion and misinformation with respect to how to end snoring once and for all.

The purpose of these series of articles on snoring are simply to provide an answer to that most fundamental of snoring demands: how to end snoring once and for all!

And as youll see in just a few moments, the answer often does not lie in expensive and risky surgeries. In fact, in some cases (and we'll talk about this later on in the forthcoming articles), surgery can be counter-productive and expose the snorer to other health risks! Fortunately, however, there exist several proven non-surgical anti-snoring devices, techniques, and tips that have worked wonders.

These non-surgical solutions have literally saved lives; and just as valuably, they've profoundly improved the quality of life for millions of people who found themselves at their wits end when it came to snoring; both their own, or in that of a loved one (who was becoming less and less loveable as the snoring continued!).

Before we look at these non-surgical methods of ending snoring once and for all, its helpful to understand just what snoring is on a biologic level. Well look at what causes snoring, and what creates those Zs (which we now know are not as happy and enjoyable as we remember them from our childhood drawings).

Once we've looked at the causes of snoring, we'll take a deeper look at why snoring is a problem. Obviously, we already know that its a problem; but its well worth the time to understand just how devastating untreated snoring can be; both for the snorer, and indeed, for the non-snorer. Youll likely be amazed if not a little disturbed by the dizzying array of problems that are quite clearly traced back to snoring; problems that manifest on both the physical and emotional levels.

After that, well be in a position to take a look at remedies for snoring; and our first focus here will be on surgical procedures. Why? Because its important for us to understand, scientifically, why surgical procedures to end snoring are dangerous and often counterproductive.

This is very important information that everyone should know, because it paves the way for the final section of the forthcoming articles: non-surgical, safe, and proven methods of ending snoring once and for all.

So remember, if you have kids and see them draw or paint happy pictures of sleeping people with Zs rising from their peacefully dreaming bodies, you might want to think twice before sticking those keepsakes to the fridge, or framing them and putting them on your desk at work.

Once you've finished these series of my articles on snoring, you'll likely never be able to look at seemingly innocent, safe snoring in the same way!
