Maybe you could sleep better

if you changed your eating habits?

Believe it or not – there are actually foods that can help you sleep better. In fact your choices of food may even be helping to cause your insomnia!

We all know that changing eating habits is easier said than done but you may only need to tweak your normal diet a little bit – not completely overhaul it. Adding certain foods or changing the time when you eat certain foods can have an impact on your ability to sleep better – and – of course taking notice of what you’re eating will also help you to make healthier food choices over-all – which is no bad thing!

Turkey is one of the  foods that will help you sleep better – that’s why we often feel like taking a nap after Christmas dinner. Turkey contains an amino acid called tryptophan and your body uses it to produce serotonin which calms your brain and helps you to sleep.

Proteins contain tyrosine – which wakes you up – so don’t have high protein meals in the evening. Try to have your higher protein meals in the morning and early afternoon and eat more carbohydrates at night but – don’t be tempted to go for an all-carb meal as this will have the opposite effect and keep you awake even more.
