Sleeping on Your Left Side Affects Your Health in Ways You Would Have Never Thought
The way we sleep is often something we do without much consideration. Yet, just like the foods we eat, our sleeping position can quietly influence how our bodies function. Sleeping on your left side, in particular, has long been mentioned in traditional wellness practices—and modern habits are beginning to notice its subtle benefits too.
When you sleep on your left side, gravity may help support natural digestion. This position can make it easier for the stomach and intestines to do their work overnight, which is why many people say they feel less discomfort and heaviness in the morning. For those who enjoy lighter, soothing evening meals or warm nighttime recipes, this sleeping position can complement those routines.
