Simple trick to stop snoring goes viral with 2million views

A simple trick designed to stop snoring was shared by an expert over the weekend and quickly racked up more than 2million views on Instagram.

Dentist Dr Seb Lomas is one of a handful of experts in the country specialising in treating patients for issues with airways, such as snoring.

Seb shared a video showing a simple trick he says will cut your snoring. Seb said: "Hold the tongue to the roof of your mouth, suck it and click. Do 30 of them per day.

"The louder the click, the better the tongue posture. This is all about strengthening your airway muscles.

"Snoring occurs due to floppy airway muscles, poor tongue positioning, and breathing through the mouth during sleep. Mouth and throat exercises can tone up the airway and tongue muscles while promoting breathing through the nose.

"Mouth breathing is one of the most common causes of snoring, so it's important to retrain good breathing practices."
