Tips for better sleep

Quality sleep at night helps regulate body functions, restore muscles and cells, improve mental health and balance hormones.

There are specific diets and habits that can improve sleep, according to health site TheHealthSite (India).

Drinking certain herbal teas like chamomile tea can help you sleep well.

Foods and habits for good sleep

Yogurt: Probiotic foods like yogurt can help keep your gut healthy, which in turn can improve sleep.

Herbal teas: Drinking certain herbal teas, such as chamomile and lemon balm, can help you sleep better. According to research, herbal teas contain compounds that help the body fall asleep faster.

Healthy Diet: A diet rich in vegetables, omega-3 fatty acids, fruits, and healthy fats is easy to digest and will promote better sleep.

Eating on time: Eating on time brings many health benefits, especially sleep. Eating dinner before 8pm helps digestion, supports metabolism, controls weight and makes it easier to sleep.

Maintaining healthy eating and sleeping habits will contribute significantly to health and spirit. However, to have a good sleep, we need to avoid the following foods:

According to Johns Hopkins medical journal, there are three types of foods to avoid before going to bed.

Alcohol. It may make you sleepy, but it won’t give you quality sleep. The effects of alcohol only last for a short time, and once they wear off, it will disrupt your sleep. Plus, alcohol dehydrates you.

Fat and protein. Foods rich in fat and protein are difficult to digest. The body needs time to break them down. This process can take at least 3 to 4 hours, or even longer depending on the metabolic rate of each person. Therefore, you should avoid eating at least 4 hours before going to bed.

Spicy foods. Similar to fatty foods, spicy foods are difficult to digest and break down. Going to bed right after eating spicy foods can cause heartburn and acid reflux.
