Causes For Snoring

I've heard that being overweight can contribute to snoring, but I've never read anything about any physiological correlation. Can someone enlighten me? "I have this friend" who wants to know ;-D. After speaking to others on the web, I found the answer. Do research on obstructive sleeping disorders. Being overweight can make your stomach compress your lung causing lower lung volumes, more weight around the neck area canc cause the antatomy of the throat to be tighter and cause snoring.
