Is there any way to prevent myself from snoring at night?

Simple things: Avoid drinking alcohol for a few hours before going to sleep, make sure you maintain a normal body weight. If you persist in snoring, you need a medical evaluation to rule out sleep apnea.

Yes some can help: You can try simple measures that include sleeping on your side, avoid alcohol and sedatives near bedtime, and weight loss. If you are a robust snorer, you may have a condition called sleep apnea (sa) which can be quite detrimental to your health. A sleep study can determine this. There are several centers in our area. Call my office if you need more help (danville, ca).
