Having a cold or flu can cause increased snoring


Sleep more and longer. Better sleep can lower your chances of caching a cold.
Science has already shown that chronic sleep loss can tax the immune system;
conversely, getting enough naps can strengthen your defences against many diseases, including the common cold.
Research shows that early action can reduce the frequency of sneezing and blowing your nose. It may also reduce the occurrence of ear complications.
Keep moving: The American Council on Exercise report that regular exercise does not give bugs a chance to stick around because it increases the number of killer cells (macrophages) available to attack them when when they invade your body. It also makes immune cell mobilize faster so they have a better reaction time when a bug does try to strike. However, more is not better: More than 90 minutes of high-intensity endurance exercise can make you susceptible to illness for up to 72 hours afterwards, reports the American Council on Fitness. If you are already sick, light to moderate exercise is OK if your up to it, but put off intense training until symptoms pass. If you have flu symptoms like fever, swollen glands, it is better to rest now and move later.
