Yes, it is true that a partner's snoring can be a sign of heart disease. Snoring is caused by an obstruction in the airway and if you have sleep apnea then your airways may collapse during sleep. Sleep apnea is associated with high blood pressure, coronary artery disease, stroke, diabetes, obesity and other medical conditions. So a partner's snoring could be a sign of heart disease.
