What determines the volume of snoring: interesting, but such unpleasant facts

People have many different individual characteristics. The worst ones are those who have to live with snorers.

Snoring itself is dangerous to health, and it really hurts your loved ones. And we must admit that it is impossible to make the sound of snoring quieter.

Why does a person snore?

In short, it is a pathology. The growling sound occurs due to the vibration of the soft tissues of the nasopharynx during breathing.

And also because the lumen of the upper respiratory tract in snoring people is quite narrow.

What does volume depend on?

Experts say the main reason is the volume of the oral and nasal cavities, frontal and maxillary sinuses.

It is believed that the highest timbre is due to guttural snoring, and in a normal situation the volume of nighttime “growl” is similar to a loud conversation.

But there are exceptions, like the Swede Kare Walkert, who snored with a volume similar to the roar of an internal combustion engine, for which he was included in the Guinness Book of Records.

Another interesting point is that none of the snoring people hear their own snoring.

It is also known that a person who is awake can snore, not just a sleeping person.

The only good thing about this whole story is that snoring can actually go away.

But this will not happen on its own, only if you normalize your weight and give up bad habits.
