SLEEP NEWS:  WHAT IS THE BEST SIDE TO SLEEP ON FOR DIGESTION AND OTHER BENEFITS?

7/6/2020

7 Comments

 
It’s no wonder that many of us are interested in learning more about sleep.  Since 1991, the National Sleep Foundation has conducted polls to study American’s sleeping habits.  One highlight from 2020 is that significant numbers of people in America feel sleepy about 3 days per week, which negatively affects their daily lives. 
 
When it comes to which position is best for sleeping, medical science tells us that sleeping on our back is healthiest.  However, it must not be very comfortable, because only 8% of us sleep that way.  On the other hand, sleeping on our stomach is considered the least healthy due to the way it positions the spine, neck, and arms and presses on the stomach.
 
Side sleeping benefits include better digestion, enhanced brain power, keeping snoring to a minimum, reducing pressure on the heart.  There are ways to keep the body in alignment—sometimes difficult when sleeping on the side—which are explained in the article.  Also detailed are the pros and cons of each side.

If you or a friend or family member would like to talk to Dr. Taketa-Wong about this or any other health question, we offer a no-charge phone consultation called the Personal Health Strategy Session.  Please call our office at 808-425-2987 or text FREE CONSULT to that number for more information or to schedule a free consultation with the doctor.  Mahalo!

Then again, resting on our stomach is viewed as the most un-solid because of the manner in which it positions the spine, neck, and arms and pushes on the stomach.

old in Roth IRA refers to the practice of holding physical gold or gold-related investments (like gold ETFs or gold mining stocks) within a Roth Individual Retirement Account (IRA). This strategy allows investors to diversify their retirement portfolio with precious metals, which can potentially provide a hedge against inflation and market volatility. The key benefit of using a Roth IRA is the tax advantage: qualified withdrawals from a Roth IRA are tax-free, making gold a potentially tax-efficient investment for retirement.
