What position is considered the most harmful for sleep: doctor's comments
Each person has their own favorite sleeping position in which they fall asleep faster.
Meanwhile, it is believed that someone who sleeps on their back will certainly snore, sleeping on their stomach is generally unnatural for a person, and sleeping on their side is supposedly harmful to the heart.
However, the most harmful sleeping position is sleeping on the stomach, writes Aif.ru with reference to general practitioner Galina Aksenova.
According to the specialist, this position is unnatural for a person and can cause health problems.
When a person sleeps on his stomach, his head is turned either to the right or to the left.
As a result, problems with blood flow arise and the blood flow to the brain is disrupted.
In the morning this leads to the formation of edema.
But a much more serious issue is increased intraocular pressure, and eye strain can cause headaches.
The next acute point is inadequate blood flow, due to which the brain does not receive enough oxygen.
For those who like to sleep in this position, the doctor advises purchasing a pillow that should be placed between the legs, arms or under the neck.
The pillow does not have to be large and bulky, but it will improve your sleep.
