It’s common practice to not eat before bedtime, but certain snacks can help you snooze. Research shows that a carbohydrate paired with calcium or a protein can lead to a better night’s sleep. These combinations will help you feel calm because they boost serotonin in your brain. Try this snack about an hour before bedtime, and observe the change in your quality of sleep.*
For sleepy-time snacks, reach for whole grain cereal and milk, celery sticks with almond butter, or a slice of whole wheat toast with cheese. Remember to have this type of snack an hour before bedtime, which allows enough time for serotonin to kick in.
