Questions & Answers

Q: What are the advantages of sleeping on your back?

Sleeping on your back allows for a neutral spine position, preventing neck and back pain and avoiding wrinkles caused by pressing the face against the pillow.

Q: What are the disadvantages of sleeping on your stomach?

While it may prevent snoring, sleeping on your stomach puts pressure on joints and muscles, leading to numbness, neck and back pain, and other discomforts.

Q: Why do some people have hypermobility or appear double jointed?

Hypermobility is not caused by having more or double joints but rather by flexible ligaments that enable certain individuals to bend their body parts more than normal.

Q: How is coffee decaffeinated?

One method is the solvent-based method, where green coffee beans are soaked in hot water to dissolve caffeine and flavor. Solvents like methylene chloride or ethyl acetate are then used to remove caffeine, and the flavored water is reabsorbed by the coffee beans.

• Hypermobility, often mistaken as being double jointed, is caused by flexible ligaments enabling certain individuals to bend their body parts more than normal.
