For some, snoring is a noisy night time inconvenience, especially for a snorer’s sleeping partner; for others, it is a major and potentially life-threatening health issue. But whatever the outcome, snoring is the bain of existence for over half the world’s adults today.

In his new book, Essential Stop Snoring Secrets, Dr Rick Donald offers snorers a natural, clinically proven and life changing solution to their often long standing problem. Some 3,500 one-on-one consultations in his private Melbourne medical practice have proven beyond doubt to Dr Rick that for the majority of snorers, this health issue can now be successfully treated, without the need for snorers to continually try product after product or to resort to surgery in an attempt to find a cure.

According to Dr Rick, the first-line treatment to stop common snoring should always consist of initially monitoring and controlling a snorer’s daily food and drink intake so that they avoid specific antagonistic food and drink combinations before retiring to bed.

In Essential Stop Snoring Secrets, Dr Rick states that for snorers without structural complications in their upper respiratory tract, what they consume may well be the actual root cause their snoring problem.

Even sufferers of the potentially life-threatening snoring complication Obstructive Sleep Apnea – a disease linked to high blood pressure, congestive heart failure and stroke -can benefit, because for them Dr Rick’s program addresses many of the contributing factors which may be worsening their condition.

According to Dr Rick, “my stop snoring program was a serendipitous discovery. In fact, it was the partners of my weight loss patients who alerted me to it - they kept telling me that not only were their sleeping partners losing weight, but also that their nightly snoring racket had lessened, or in some cases, stopped completely”.

The very heart of Dr Rick’s Essential Stop Snoring Secrets program is that “if you eat the right foods at the right time of day, the average person should be able to permanently stop, or at least significantly reduce their snoring naturally and maybe even lose a few pounds at the same time”.

For instance, it’s common knowledge that milk can cause upper respiratory tract congestion, which then may exacerbate snoring. But one of the many breakthroughs that Dr Rick also discovered in his research is that consuming certain specific carbohydrates groups after 3pm, such as potatoes and dried fruit to name a few, can also contribute to whether a person snores of not.

When formulating Essential Stop Snoring Secrets, Dr Rick drew on his extensive knowledge of both Western allopathic medicine and also the ancient wisdom of the Eastern healing arts. This helped him identify that some foods, such as pears and leeks for example, may prevent or reduce snoring in their own right by helping improve the tone of a snorer’s trachea and by supporting their respiratory structures.

Essential Stop Snoring Secrets is a fresh, clinically proven and user-friendly approach to a health concern that affects millions of people worldwide. Based on the doctrine that ‘we are what we eat’, Dr Rick’s program stands alone in that it offers a natural and most importantly a long term solution to a pressing chronic problem, instead of just palliating the symptoms as most other commonly available stop snoring treatments simply do.
