Sleep is a vital need of our lives. It is well said that “Your future depends on your dreams, so go to sleep”. Sleep is important for our physical as well as mental health. Sleep is involved in repairing our heart and blood vessels. Sleep deficiency leads to a risk of hypertension, kidney disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. However, your sleep could be better.
11.It is good for your heart
The left side of the heart receives blood from the lungs and pumps it out to the body. Therefore, a left-sided sleeping position may help your heart to do its job more easily and efficiently. When you sleep on your left side, gravity facilitates the function of your circulatory system, especially your aorta and inferior vena cava, a large vein that carries de-oxygenated blood from the lower body to the heart and lies on the right side of your spine.
