Isn't that considered not as good for one's heart? I thought lying on the back is best for heart health?

roll to the right - ok; roll to the left, pressure on the heart.

  • But sleeping on right apparently aggravates heartburn. (Is there some law of advice, that there is always equal and opposite advice?)

    • The downsides of having organs all over :). Any position might either stress the organs that end up on the bottom or encourage a less that ideal flow of fluids.

      I guess YMMV. Some trial and error may be needed to see what works for you even if the theory says otherwise (heartburn is an easy one to spot).
