Foods that hinder sleep quickly

A nutritionist explained that eating ice cream before bed prevents falling asleep quickly.

And Dr. Daniel Perez-Vidal advised, as Russia Today reported, quoting RIA Novosti, that it is never recommended to eat ice cream (ice cream) at night, because it contains a high percentage of sugar, which causes a high level of insulin in the blood, and complicates the transition to sleep, because It acts as a stimulant like caffeine.

Therefore, it is better not to eat it in the evening period, and he also indicated that cheese, hot spices and cakes should not be eaten in the evening period.

"When we eat, the body converts food into energy that keeps the person awake and prevents him from sleeping. The stomach also does not respond to digesting the food that the person eats at night, which leads to feelings of discomfort and inconvenience," Vidal said.

The expert points out, that it is better in the evening to eat bananas (contains potassium and magnesium) or almonds (rich in calcium). These substances help relax the body and muscles and convert the amino acid tryptophan into melatonin, which stimulates sleep.
