7 Reasons Why You Should Sleep On Your Left Side

1. Prevents Snoring

Snoring can put quite a strain on a relationship, and the other party losing sleep over it isn’t going to get them in a better mood! One thing you can do to keep your (or your partner’s) snoring at a minimum is to sleep on your left side.

Of course, this isn’t a fix-it-all solution, but it does help keep your tongue and throat in a more neutral position, thereby clearing the airways and minimizing snoring. And for someone with a snoring problem, sleeping on their back is the absolute worst position as it relaxes said tissues backward and partially obstructs the airways. Snoring is the resulting sound caused by the vibration that occurs when air is pulled through the crowded space.
