How does Help Stop Snoring work?
When you sleep your body relaxes, the soft tissue that lines the top of your throat looses its tone, causing it to vibrate in the airflow induced by breathing. Helps Stop Snoring works by re-toning this soft tissue, 'The Soft Palate', which when taut and active cannot reverberate to cause snoring.
Helps Stop Snoring is an entirely natural remedy, developed over a number of years in the UK. It is a unique blend of over eleven essential oils and although the exact formula is a closely guarded secret, ingredients include; Mentha Piperita, to aid the respiratory system and Citrus Limonum, commonly used in the treatment of respiratory complaints including asthma and bronchitis.

What are the causes of Snoring?
As a rule snoring is aggravated by either a restriction of the nasal airways or a relaxing of the soft tissue in the throat. Factors that relax the soft tissue lining at the back of the throat can add to the problem. Air passing through the restricted passages will cause the soft tissue to vibrate producing an even heavier reverberating sound.
Smoking is one activity that has been linked to aggravation of the snoring condition. Smoking is one of several factors that encourage the body to produce excess mucus, which can contribute to the restriction of the airways.
Excessive consumption of dairy products and common allergies, such as hay fever, are further mucus stimulants each raising the incidence or level of snoring in sufferers.
Other factors that affect breathing such as non-allergic ailments like colds and flu can also have a restricting effect on the airways, although these are more difficult to deal with.
Alcohol is a well-known relaxant and which can cause a softening of the tissue in the throat, which will nearly always lead to a noticeable effect on a snorer.
Finally obesity can have an effect. Over eating leads to an enlargement of the tissue in the neck which, when lying down, can compress and restrict the airway raising the likelihood of snoring.

Why do we snore?
During sleep, breathing and heart rates slow and our muscles relax. In the throat this causes the soft palate, a small flap of skin, to become limp and flaccid. It is this soft palate that reverberates in the airflow through the throat when you breathe, causing the sound we know as snoring.
This basic cause can be affected by a number of factors.
