    Low Carb and Snoring

    I read on another site that low card dieting reduces snoring in some people, has anyone else heard of this or experienced it?
    I'm assuming it's because weight loss reduces fat around the neck but I can't see the connection to LC, surely any weight loss
    would be a benefit no matter how it was achieved. Or is there something I'm missing?

    Low carb can reduce congestion which can cause snoring, so I can see how there could be a link. Its also an inflammation reducing diet which may have something to do with it - it would depend on the reasons you snore.
    dieting is hard. being overweight is hard. choose your hard.
