Snoring is normally considered a harmless yet irritating habit that most people live with, but research suggests it can actually be a sign of something more serious.
It can be a nuisance for both the sufferer and for those sharing living spaces. However snoring may also be a major risk factor for serious health consequences including cancer and heart disease.
There are many factors that contribute to snoring such as alcohol intake, allergies, weight and how your position your head while sleeping.
