There are many things to try that may help to stop your snoring. Here is a list of things to start with:

1. Weight - if you're overweight, try losing some weight. This may help with eliminating extra tissue in the throat.

2. Body position - if you tend to sleep on your back, try sleeping on your side. This will help prevent your tongue from falling back and preventing airflow.

3. Bed position - try elevating the head of your bed by about 4 inches.

4. Nasal strips - try adhesive nasal strips, or try a nasal dilator to increase airflow through your nose. These can be found at the drugstore.
