Dear Jane,
Sleep is very important to us and one of the secrets to get good sleep is eating right. There are some foods that can stop your sleep and help you fall asleep. Try to make dinnertime earlier in the evening, and avoid heavy, rich foods within two hours of bed. Fatty foods take a lot of work for your stomach to digest and may keep you up. Also be cautious when it comes to spicy or acidic foods in the evening, as they can cause stomach trouble and heartburn.
Many people think that a nightcap before bed will help them sleep, but it’s counter intuitive. While it may make you fall asleep faster, alcohol reduces your sleep quality, wakes you up later in the night. To avoid this effect, stay away from alcohol in the hours before bed.
You might be surprised to know that caffeine can cause sleep problems up to ten to twelve hours after drinking it! Consider eliminating caffeine after lunch or cutting back your overall intake.
Avoid drinking too many liquids in the evening. Drinking lots of water, juice, tea, or other fluids may result in frequent bathroom trips throughout the night. Caffeinated drinks, which act as diuretics, only make things worse.
If you’re hungry at bedtime, a light snack before bed can help promote sleep. When you pair tryptophan-containing foods with carbohydrates, it may help calm the brain and allow you to sleep better.
Hope you will get a good sleep.
Regards,
