Peppermint Oil
Peppermint oil is considered by many to be a safe and effective treatment for snoring. It is usually used with a spray that causes the user’s throat muscles to relax. Some people apply peppermint oil directly on their gums, while others prefer placing a small amount under their tongues before they sleep.
The ability of peppermint oil helps reduce snoring. Spasms in the airways tend to aggravate snoring, but peppermint oil helps reduce those spasms, alleviating snoring. It is also an effective decongestant that helps clear up nasal congestion.
Peppermint oil is available in many forms, including sprays, drops, gels, and creams. The most effective way to use peppermint oil is by taking a few drops of it orally, massaging them on your neck and chest, or spraying it into your nostrils. You can also add a few drops of the oil to a glass of water and drink it before bed.
