Here is the list of most Frequently Asked
Questions
Are
the pills addictive?
- Snore M.D. is not addictive in any way, will not affect your weight or
appetite, will not make you drowsy the next day or give you a feeling of
being "hung over" the next day, will not cause diarrhea or
constipation, will
not affect hair growth, and will not give you a headache or cramps or
backache.
What is Snore
M.D. made of?
- Snore M.D.
is a unique combination of natural herbs and enzymes. (Acerola,
Amylase, Cayenne Pepper, Cellulase, Echinacea, Elderberry, Eucalyptus,
Fenugreek, Lipase, Protease, Red Clover, Rose Hips, Slippery Elm, Yarrow).
How
long does it take before you it starts working?
- In
most cases significant results will be noticed as early as the first night. others
may take longer. Be patient. It takes awhile for the
body to get used to the herbs and enzymes.
What
is the correct dosage?
- Dosage
is based on the weight of the user. However, each person is unique. We have
found that some people can increase or decrease their dosage to fit their
own system and obtain the best results. The suggested dosage is: Under 125
lbs. 1 to 2 tablets, 126-200 lbs. 2 to 3 tablets, over 200 lbs. 3-5 tablets.
DON'T BE AFRAID TO VARY YOUR DOSAGE. Find whatever works best
for you. Severe allergies, smoking, or evening alcohol consumption tends to
make snoring worse. These conditions may require you to increase your dosage
by one half to one tablet in order to obtain the maximum benefits from Snore
M.D.
Should
I eat something when I take Snore M.D.?
- Snore
M.D. works best when taken on an empty stomach. Do not eat or snack heavily
for two hours prior to taking Snore M.D.
Does
food affect Snore M.D.?
- No,
but certain foods increase the production of mucous which can lead to more
severe snoring. Dairy foods such as milk, butter, cheese, and cream are the
worst offenders. These types of foods should be limited or eliminated two
hours prior to bedtime.
Do
the pills interact with any other medication, which I am taking at the time?
- After
3 1/2 years and over 100,000 users of the product, we have had no
complaints of side effects, allergic reactions to the formula or
interactions
with any medications being taken for other medical conditions.
Do the pills affect my weight in
any way?
How long before going to sleep should I take the pills: 30 min.
or 45 min?
- Snore M.D. should be taken 30 to 60 minutes before bedtime.
Any time
within that range is sufficient.
Does the
number of pills to be taken each night dependent on my weight and specific
situation (like being extra tired or drunk)?
- The
instructions on the bottle and in the Product Information Booklet link
the dosage with the weight of the user. These are clearly only
guidelines! The product is extremely safe, and we suggest that a new user can obtain
faster and better results by starting out at double the normal dose. When
good results are obtained, the dose may be adjusted downward by reducing the
evening dose by 1/2 caplet every 4 to 5 days until you find your most
effective and lowest dosage level. We have found that approximately
80% of users will obtain good results from the dosage guidelines set forth. However, to obtain satisfactory results, 10% of users must take more than
the recommended dosage and 10% of users will need less than the recommended
dosage. Certain situations will arise which do require at least one
extra caplet that night. These include unusual and severe fatigue,
having more than two alcoholic drinks in the five hours before bed, eating
within two
hours prior to bedtime.
Can I
take the pills if am pregnant or lactating?
- Pregnant
or lactating women should obtain the permission of their own
physician before taking Snore M.D.
Is
Snore M.D. safe for everyone?
- Snore
M.D. is all natural and therefore drug free. It has been shown to be safe
for both adults and children. However, for women who are pregnant or breast-feeding,
or anyone on medication, it is best to check with a physician first.
Are there any side effects?
-
After 3 1/2 years and over 100,000 users of the
product, we have had no
complaints of side effects, allergic reactions to the formula or
interactions
with any medications being taken for other medical conditions.
Should I consult my doctor before starting these pills?
- Unless you fall under
one of the categories listed above, it is not necessary for an adult or
child over six years of age who is starting to take Snore M.D. to consult
a physician unless they have unusual, severe or life threatening illnesses.
Will the pills work after a heavy
meal?
-
Certain
situations will arise which do require at least one extra caplet that night.
These include unusual and severe fatigue, having more than two alcoholic
drinks in the five hours before bed, eating within two
hours prior to bedtime.
Can I take the pills after consuming alcohol?
- A
larger than normal dose of Snore M.D. may be helpful, but in cases of
extreme drunkenness, snoring may persist.
Will
the pills have any adverse effect if I have: diabetes or a heart condition?
- No, the
formulation will have no adverse effects on diabetes or any heart
condition.
Will it make me drowsy the next day?
Will it affect the length and the quality of my sleep
in any way?
- By being very effective, Snore M.D.
produces positive effects on the sleeping person by
allowing the snorer to get into the deeper levels of sleep needed to repair
the physical, emotional and mental damage caused by our normal daily
lifestyle.
Snorers
do not get adequate rest during their night's sleep due to two
factors. First, snorers suffer literally hundreds to thousands of "microarousals" each night.
These are periods of wakefulness
lasting only a
thousandth of a second or so. They awaken the snorer, but are so brief
that
neither the snorer nor the mate are aware of it. However, they do limit
the
depth of sleep and prevent adequate rest. Second, the vast majority of
snorers experience a significant decrease in arterial oxygen while they are
snoring, producing hypoxia of the brain and preventing good sleep and
adequate rest.
What
about my allergies?
- The
unique blend of herbs and enzymes should eliminate excess mucous, which
could open your sinus passages and help restore clear breathing. We have
customers who do not have a snoring problem, but buy this product in order
to help bring relief from their allergies.
Will it cause diarrhea or constipation?
- No, it will
not cause diarrhea or constipation
I am taking many other vitamins; minerals and nutritional
supplements. Will there be any adverse drug interaction?
- Snore M.D. may be safely taken with any and all vitamins, minerals or
other nutritional supplements.
Will it affect my hair growth?
Will it give me a headache?
Will I get cramps or backaches?
Can
these pills be taken during the menstrual period?
- Yes, Snore M.D. may be
safely taken during
the menstrual period.
Does the product have liability insurance?
-
There is $10,000,000 product liability
insurance, which covers the manufacture and production of this product.
Will
it cure the snoring or just reduce it?
- Out
of every 100 people who try Snore M.D. 85 to 90 will obtain good (50% to
75% reduction in snoring) to excellent (75% to 100% reduction in snoring).
In our experience, approximately 65% will experience complete elimination of
snoring and 35% will experience a significant decrease in snoring.
In
checking the ingredients of SnoreMD, I noticed a contradiction and would like it
explained/clarified. At the top of the list of ingredients it states no salt
among others, in the actual list of ingredients it lists sodium as one of the
ingredients. Which is correct? I need answers before I embark on this program.
Would appreciate hearing from you.
-
Please allow me to explain the apparent contradiction. When we speak of products that contain sodium, we actually mean FREE sodium. In other
words, Sodium that forms free ions inside your body that can then enter your
cells. The sodium listed on our label is croscarmellose sodium, one of the
INACTIVE ingredients. This sodium is chemically bound very strongly and does NOT
Form sodium ions inside the body. In addition, the amount used is very
minimal. Even if that amount of sodium were to form ions, the quantity would not be
enough to affect someone on sodium restriction.
Dear Doctor,
Please could you send me more info about the causes of snoring and how I can stop it. I snore every night and it starts as I'm starting to fall asleep.
My friends and family joke about it and say they can hear me from the other end of the house. I'm very conscious about it and it upsets me. I don't like falling asleep on airplanes as I would and do feel very embarrassed about it.
I'm a 40 year old male, 1.73m tall and I weigh about 80kg. I try and eat healthily and have reduced my diary intake. I used to smoke about 15 cigarettes a day, but have now given up for 3 years and 8 months. I do suffer from hay fever and frequently blocked sinuses. I live in Johannesburg, South Africa - which is at quite a high altitude and therefore the air here is not as humid or as dense as at sea level. During the summer months it's quite hot here and humid, but during winter it gets quite cold and the air is very dry and dusty; as no rain falls here from May to August. So during the winter months my condition and snoring becomes more aggravated and worse.
I'm currently using homeopathic products to try and alleviate my hay fever and sinus problems. I use a nasal spray (Euphorbium compositum made by - Heel, Germany) and tablets (Sinusan Sinusitis & Rhinitis - made by Homeoden n.v. 9000 Gent, Belgium) which I place under my tongue until dissolved. They offer some temporary relief but I still have blocked sinuses (which alternate from left to right sometimes).
Do you really think this product can help me? I've heard about a laser surgery procedure on the throat to stop snoring. What do you know about it and how safe and successful is it? Please help me, I look forward to your reply. Do you have a free trial sample to offer me?
-
Although snoring is a complex issue, we now know that the underlying and
main cause of snoring is the nightly accumulation of respiratory secretions
that produce a partial obstruction to air flow in the back of the throat. When
we bring air over that area, instead of going down smoothly, the partial
obstruction causes the air flow to become turbulent, vibrating the soft
tissues in the back of the throat and produces snoring. As you might imagine, the hay fever and sinus problems simply make the
problem much worse.
It is critical that you get this problem under control and KEEP it under
control thereafter, as loud snoring is associated with a marked increase
in the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and high blood pressure. Evidence is
now appearing that suggest that snoring can increase the risk of getting Type
2 diabetes, and more than 30% of all snorers that do NOT control the problem
develop sleep apnea, a VERY serious medical condition.
The laser surgery for snoring has been a major disappointment. Not only
is it extremely painful (sometimes for months), but there are a significant
number of post-operative deaths and lifelong complications of the
procedures that have now been reported in the medical literature. Worst of all, less
than 70% of the operations result in any benefit, and within 12-18 months,
almost all of the patients are snoring again (but you may still have the
complications)!
Fortunately, SnoreMD actually attacks this problem directly. It is a 100%
natural caplet that is taken by weight 30 minutes before bedtime on an
empty stomach (no food for 2 hours). It is composed of 4 natural digestive
enzymes and 11 herbs. It is absorbed completely within 10 to 15 minutes. The
enzymes begin to break down (digest) all of the secretions and allow the
body to remove them naturally while the herbs eliminate the tissue swelling and
inflammation in the airway. Between these two actions, we're able to open
up the airway, smooth out the air flow, and the snoring either dies down to a
dull murmur or, in most cases, goes away completely.
There are now over 250,000 users in North American with 85-90% good to
excellent results, no side effects, no allergic reactions and no
interactions with any medications. The product is 100% guaranteed and begins to work
the first night it is taken. Since it is proven to be safe, effective and guaranteed, I would suggest that you try this remedy. However, to get the most benefit, you must control the other respiratory problems that you have through every day. SnoreMD can
provide you with another very effective product for that called AllergyMD. My patients who have problems similar to yours take AllergyMD during the day, SnoreMD at night and achieve 24 hour
control of their problem. They sleep better, are more rested and are much
more alert and happier.
Hi,
My wife (the snorer) is extremely allergic to all types of parsley (cilantro, corriander seeds etc), Does you product contain any of them?
I realize you may not be able to answer this, I have purchased and
received SnoreMD, (thanks for your quick delivery), I am currently taking Atenolol 50mg, for hypertnsion, and Allopurinol for an attack of gout I had three
years ago, do you think it will be ok to take SnoreMD, also I had a kindeystone some 2 years ago, just wondered if the calcium content of SnoreMD
should be a concern? I look forward to you comments.
-
I certainly appreciate your concerns, and they are well founded.
Fortunately, we have NEVER HAD ANY INTERACTIONS WITH ANY MEDICATIONS, INCLUDING THE ONES THAT YOU LISTED. This statement is true in spite of
The fact that this product has been on the market approximately five years With over 250,000 people in North America using the product. On the plus side,
We constantly obtain 85-90% good to excellent results with no side effects, No allergic reactions and NO interactions with any medications. Since many
snorers are older and have multiple medical problems that may require various medications, we have a lot of experience in this area. This product is
both safe and effective.
My wife has been taking SnoreMD for a few months. She got elevated levels of SGOT(187)& SGPT(397). Is this a possible side effect?
-
We have tried to monitor any side effects which might arise from SnoreMD
since the product went into commercial distribution in 1995 and for the
two years prior to that when I was clinically testing the product. To date,
more than 250,000 people in North America have used the product with NO reports
of side effects, allergic reactions or interactions with medications of any
type. Since anyone can have a unique reaction to anything, based on our
experience with the product, I can say with confidence that it would be extremely
unlikely that your wife's elevated liver enzymes were related to SnoreMD. It would be much more probable that some medications she might be taking,
e.g., hormones, would be the item responsible.
I am considering ordering your product for my husband, but he has a cleft palate. He complains that he can not breathe through his nose. I am sure this is why he snores. Would your product still help?
-
The simple presence of a cleft palate should NOT stop your husband from
breathing through his nose. This sounds like a problem that is complicated by either allergies and/or sinus problems, producing a partial obstruction
to air flow. I believe that SnoreMD has a great chance of relieving the snoring of your
husband. You really have no risk, as the product is 100% guaranteed. As
you probably know, we constantly obtain 85-90% good to excellent results with
this very fine product with NO side effects, allergies, or interaction with any medications.
My son, 2 1/2 yrs, has pet and some food allergies. Can he use AllergyMD? He also has Asthma.
-
AllergyMD was formulate to deal specifically with
respiratory allergies, but our experience over the past three years and over 50,000 users has shown that the preparation has much broader uses which definitely include all allergies, including pets and food.
In terms of pets, if the pet to which the boy is allergic lives in the house the preparation will have to be taken regularly and continuously. If the pet lives in another home, the allergy formula will have to be taken one hour prior to exposure and not other times.
The formula can help reduce the effects of food allergies by taking it one hour prior to eating the offending foods. The real answer to food allergies is to find a good physician who does nutritional counseling and obtain a blood test which measures the immune globulin response to approximately 100 foods or foods. When the foods to which he is allergic are identified, AVOID EATING THEM!!!!!! If any of those foods or food substances are inadvertently ingested afterward, AllergyMD can be used for treatment with good effectiveness. (ImmunoLabs in Fort Lauderdale, FL is the best in the country).
How
long does it take to receive my order?
- Usually
it will arrive within 3 days. All orders in the Continental U.S. are shipped
via Priority Mail. Outside the U.S. orders are shipped via U.S. Air Mail and
should be received within 4 to 10 days. All orders placed on and after May

Dear Friend,
We now know that snoring is not only a major factor contributing to anxiety,
stress, hyperirritability and depression in the household and the workplace,
but is an extremely serious medical problem!! The most severe short-term
effects are daytime fatigue and daytime sleepiness leading to a much higher
rate of automobile accidents. Unfortunately, snoring always becomes
progressively more severe, eventually resulting in a tremendously high rate
of heart attacks, strokes and high blood pressure compared to the average
population. Twenty percent of all snorers (one out of every five) will
also
develop sleep apnea. This is an extremely dangerous medical condition in
which the snorer actually stops breathing for ten seconds to over one minute
and does it many times every hour. All of these conditions are now completely preventable in most people!
Sadly, only 5% of snorers have ever sought treatment or attempted to treat
the problem. If you, your mate, a family member or a close friend is a
snorer, buy them a bottle or Snore M.D. and give them the best gift of all - the gift of life!
