BEST SLEEPING POSITION TO GET RID OF BRAIN WASTE



When we all go to bed, we tend to sleep on our back, side, stomach, or assume the fetal position. Our body posture when we sleep can influence our personality, well-being, and even our brain health. According to a recent study published in the The Journal of Neuroscience, sleeping on our side rather than our back or stomach can allow the brain to discard waste products, therefore reducing the risk of Alzheimer’s and other neurological diseases.


Sleeping on our side will not only give us a good night’s sleep, it can keep our brain power on.
