Sleep right

Scientists say your sleep position can influence everything from digestion to circulation — and the differences between left and right side sleeping are bigger than most people realize.

Sleeping on your right side can reduce acid reflux by keeping stomach acid lower in the digestive tract. People with heartburn often report smoother, more comfortable sleep simply by switching to their right side. Gravity and body structure work together to prevent acid from rising — making nights calmer and mornings easier.

But when it comes to heart function, your left side takes the lead. Studies show that left-side sleeping improves blood flow by reducing pressure on the body’s largest vein, the vena cava. This helps the heart pump more efficiently and supports healthier circulation throughout the night. That’s why it’s often recommended for pregnant women and anyone aiming to boost cardiovascular health naturally.

Doctors say both positions offer their own benefits.

• Right side = better digestion & less reflux

• Left side = better circulation & heart support

Choosing the right position based on your body’s needs can make a surprising difference in your overall well-being. Sometimes, the smallest nightly habit can bring the biggest results.
