Instead of filling
yourself up with some unhealthy snacks, a sandwich or some chocolate, you
should better follow some of these advices before you stress your stomach.
Oatmeal with some
milk is the best choice before going to bed. Yes, maybe it does not
seem like the most delicious meal in the world, but it will keep you full. In
addition to this, oatmeal contains enough carbohydrates that release serotonin,
which will help you calm and fall asleep easier.
You can also eat
some low-calorie cheese. Magnesium found in cheese will keep
you calm and it will also provide a high-quality sleep. By adding some crackers
or double-baked bread, you are ready to go to bed.
Nuts have the similar
effect, since they are rich in magnesium, so before going t bed, have some walnuts, almonds and peanuts. Of course, do not eat too much.
Similar to these foods, there are some drinks providing the same effect, such as sour cherry juice. By
consuming 2 cups a day, one in the morning and one in the evening, you will
increase melatonin levels, responsible for better sleep.
Finally, the
world’s oldest recipe -- a cup of milk. Milk contains
tryptophan, an amino acid known for its benefits regarding the good night’s
sleep.
