Stop Snoring Remedies

I have heard this several times, and was wondering if anyone else has heard this, and has any info as to why this is true??

My baby twitches and gasps in her sleep (I do not know the medical term for this) but it is like after crying very hard, some children, even adults gasps. I know it should not be asmathic-related symptons but I really appreciate to have assurance that it is not.
