Be careful not to get sick from sleeping in this position

The blogger learned that the death rate from esophageal cancer is second only to gastric cancer and has become one of the biggest killers of human health. Therefore, its causes and prevention methods absolutely require our attention. Many personal lifestyles are closely related to esophageal cancer, such as bad sleeping posture, especially for people with poor digestion.

The incidence of esophageal cancer is also related to bad sleeping posture, especially for people with poor digestion. In daily life, a good sleeping posture can not only help people get better sleep quality, but also add points to their health. On the contrary, a bad sleeping posture will damage a person's organs, and in severe cases may even induce various diseases. For example, sleeping on your side can easily lead to cerebral thrombosis, sleeping prone can easily induce hypertensive heart disease, sleeping at a desk can cause enlarged eyeballs, and taking a nap while sitting can cause brain hypoxia.

The reason why bad sleeping posture can induce esophageal cancer is closely related to the human body structure. According to daily sleeping habits, many people like to sleep on the right side. However, studies have found that when sleeping on the right side, the stomach is higher than the esophagus, which provides favorable conditions for gastric acid to reflux into the esophagus. When the amount of acidic fluid in the esophagus is greater than normal and continues to build up, it can easily cause stomach burning pain. If this continues for a long time, it can easily cause coughing, wheezing, chest tightness, etc., which may cause esophageal reflux. In severe cases, it may even become one of the inducing factors of esophageal cancer.

Therefore, developing good sleeping habits is an essential part of maintaining good health. First of all, we should adjust our sleep rhythm, ensure adequate sleep and go to bed on time every day. Secondly, a quiet environment with suitable temperature, fresh air and soft colors can also help improve sleep quality.

Thirdly, eating habits will also affect the quality of sleep. Being hungry or full will make it difficult to fall asleep quickly. Smoking and drinking will cause a certain degree of excitement and psychological dependence, which will not only fail to help sleep, but also affect the quality of sleep. Finally, people with digestive tract diseases are advised to lie on their left side, which helps prevent gastroesophageal reflux, promotes digestion, prevents heartburn, and is also very beneficial for preventing diseases such as esophageal cancer.
