Why is it that most people that snore are big people?!


Question: Why is it that most people that snore are big people?
I'm not saying fat. I'm just saying big in some way. Like my boyfriend for example. He's skinny, but he's 6'4 and big boned and he snores. My dog is skinny but she's 100 lbs (as big as a person) and she snores. And not to offend anyone, but I've notices a lot of overweight people snoring? Why is it like that?

Snoring is caused by the obstructions that are on the breathing airways. When you sleep your body gets relaxed, the soft tissues of your breathing passages loosen and create obstructions so that when you breath they start vibrating and snoring noise is produced. Big people especially those who are overweight have fat gathered in their throat soft tissues, so they have more obstructions on breathing airways than others.

That is not always the case sometimes it is a sleeping disorder.
