Sleeping on your back can make your tongue roll back which partially blocks the airway and leads to snoring. So, change your sleeping position.

Being overweight results in more tissues in your throat which results in a narrow airway. Losing weight will help you reduce the tissues and stop snoring.

You should avoid having alcohol at least 3-4 hours before sleeping as alcohol relaxes your throat muscles which can lead to snoring.
