Eat These Foods For A Better Night’s Sleep

Nature has many ways of contributing to our good health. Here are a few foods to eat to help you sleep better:

1. Fish

Most fish—and especially salmon, halibut and tuna—boast vitamin B6, which is needed to make melatonin (a sleep-inducing hormone triggered by darkness).

2. Yogurt

Dairy products like yogurt and milk boast healthy doses of calcium—and there's research that suggests being calcium-deficient may make it difficult to fall asleep.

3. Whole Grains

Whole grains are rich in magnesium and it is necessary to consume adequate magnesium to aid sleep.

4. Bananas

Bananas, well-known for being rich in potassium, are also a good source of Vitamin B6, which is needed to make melatonin which is a hormone necessary for sound sleep.

5. Peanuts

Eating peanuts helps your body produce tryptophan, which is necessary for the proper function of your bodily sleep mechanism. So stock up on peanuts and peanut b*tter today!

Now there's no need for you to reach for sleeping pills when you can't fall asleep. Eat and sleep! Doesn't get any better than that!
