I'm not sure about folk remedies or herbal remedies, but there are some natural methods to stop snoring. There are many different reasons that people snore. Being overweight can be a factor, but many times people erroneously jump to the conclusion that this is the only factor at play. Many people who are not overweight snore because of relaxed throat muscles. Other times snoring can be caused by congestion in the nasal passages and sinuses, consuming alcohol before bed, or eating a large meal before going to sleep. I've heard of programs that help you stop snoring by completing a few short minutes of breathing and throat exercises each night. I've never tried it myself, but I know of people who swear that it works. To find out more about the causes of snoring and how it can be prevented or stopped I recommend visiting the blog listed below as a source.
