Foods You Should Be Eating Before Bedtime

1. Bananas

Bananas are the ideal bedtime snack because they are a rich source of magnesium and potassium. Together, these minerals have been known to relax muscles, which promotes sleep. Bananas also contain B6, an important aid in the production of serotonin, the peaceful-happy-and-content-feeling hormone as well as melatonin, the hormone that induces sleep.

Bananas are also abundant in tryptophan, an amino acid that helps your body produce even more serotonin and melatonin. It also contains just enough natural sugar to stave off any sweet cravings as well as a good source of fiber that will help your trip to the toilet in the morning go a lot smoother!
