A natural asthma treatment that is based on changing your basic breathing patterns can also stop your snoring.

Snoring occurs exclusively when we asleep, usually during the night. There is also evidence from a University of Colorado study of nearly 8000 asthma sufferers that asthma symptoms worsen at night.

This may not be surprising. Circadian rhythms are natural internal cycles that affect the body's hormone production and regulate all of the vital functions including breathing and lung function. Lung function is found to be at its peak in the early afternoon and at its lowest in the early hours of the morning around 4am.

Snoring is caused by vibration of the soft tissue in the throat due to turbulent airflow. No matter what the state of the anatomy of your throat the passing air must have enough energy, (speed and volume,) to cause the vibration . If the airflow doesn't have enough energy to cause the vibration, there is no snoring.

A natural asthma treatment that works to restore optimum breathing by controlling your rate and depth of breath can have a huge benefit in reducing your snoring.

About 70% of people with asthma also have chronic bronchitis. Sufferers of bronchitis have the tendency to want to gasp for air, much the same way as heavy snorers take huge breaths. Many asthmatics who have obtained relief using a natural treatment based on breathing techniques have also found their snoring has greatly reduced or even disappeared all together.

Most asthmatics are on a planned medication program under the guidance of their health professional. The people who choose to use a natural asthma treatment like controlled breathing, do so not to replace their current treatment but to reduce their reliance on their puffer. Recent research in Australia found that one such technique reduced inhaler usage by up to 90%. Well worth the look!
