You may think snoring is normal - but it isn’t.
Snoring happens when the airway narrows during sleep, reducing oxygen levels in the body. Over time, this can affect sleep quality and overall health.

If snoring is loud enough to disturb others, it may be your body’s way of signaling a problem.

Don’t ignore snoring - consult a sleep specialist and understand the cause.
