Dr. Janet Kennedy revealed the consequences of the positions in which people sleep - on their backs, sides and stomachs.

She says that sleeping on your stomach is the worst option because it creates uncomfortable pressure on your neck and back.

Putting a pillow under your head can help, but it's still not a desirable position to sleep in.

He adds that sleeping on your back is best for your spine, but that position increases the chance of snoring, so if you have problems with it - don't sleep on your back.

Definitely the best pose this doctor singled out - sleeping on the side. Thus, the respiratory channels are open, so this position is the best choice for people who have apnea (stopped breathing during sleep) and those who snore.

However, this pose can be a problem for the spine, but this can be solved by placing a pillow between the knees to keep the spine straight.
