   Maybe. I would have it checked out if you are waking yourself up often from your snoring.   Some people have found they have sleep Apnea which is pretty serious.

   Only if you have apnea with it. Sleep apnea puts you at high risk for heart disease and stroke; not mention walking around sleepy all the time. You shouldn't drive if you're sleepy from apnea.

   Yes. I do believe it is bad since you will be actually breathing from your mouth and sucking air instead of using your block nose where it helps to filter the dirt or dust from the air. Agreed with lambservant that it puts us in high risk of heart diseases or stroke.

   Yes, it does. It means the person is having trouble breathing. This person needs to eat a proper human diet, be more active, and sleep with the correct posture. Snoring is a symptom of a disease the person is having.

   Yes, snoring can have serious implications for one's health. First of all, snoring impairs the sleep quality of the one who is snoring. Second, it impairs the sleep quality of those who have to try to sleep near the one who is snoring. "Sleep apnea" is a serious condition associated with snoring. Or stated better, sleep apnea result in snoring. Increased blood pressure may be associated with sleep apnea or the health of one's heart may be affected by this condition.
   Therefore, the answer is Yes, snoring may have serious implications for our health.
