The best posture: sleeping on your left side

Many experts agree that sleeping on your left side is beneficial for several reasons:
- Improves digestion  : Gravity helps the stomach function efficiently.
- Promotes blood circulation  : Ideal for pregnant women or people with high blood pressure.
- Reduces acid reflux  : The stomach remains in a stable position.
- Relieves the spine  : Natural alignment that prevents back tension.
- Improves breathing  : Especially helpful if you snore or suffer from sleep apnea.
If this position is unfamiliar to you, use a body pillow to help you stay on your left side throughout the night.
