1. Improve digestion
You have often heard that if you eat dinner late, the food will not be digested, causing you to gain weight. But this is completely wrong, digestion goes on whether you wake up or sleep. You can make this activity easier by sleeping on your left side. This is because the stomach is on the left side of the abdomen and it will make it easier for food to enter the large intestine on the left side. This position also helps the stomach lie on the pancreas – supporting the movement of free digestive enzymes.
