If you sleep on your side, you’re definitely not alone. A 2019 study by Curtin University revealed that 60% of people habitually sleep on their sides. But which side should you sleep on: left or right? And is there a better side for sleep if you're pregnant, have acid reflux or other digestion issues, or you snore?
To get answers, we spoke with Dr Michael Breus (MD, FAASM), world-renowned sleep expert and the founder of The Sleep Doctor. As Dr Breus explains, sleeping on your left comes with its own pros and cons as does sleeping on your right side, but there is generally one side that most of us should sleep on for better health.
