The spleen functions more efficiently with increased blood flow, aiding impurity filtration, while the liver benefits from improved toxin processing. The lymphatic system also drains more effectively, enhancing toxin removal.
For pregnant women, especially in the last trimester, left-side sleeping alleviates liver pressure and improves circulation and heart function.
