Best Foods to Help You Fall Asleep Immediately
Lack of sleep can ruin a lot of
things: our mood, our patience, our focus and our sense of enjoyment in
life. We've all had those sleepless nights. But taking sleeping pills is
usually a problematic strategy, because they don't give you the same
natural sleep that strengthens you, and they can become quite addictive
too. Better to eat something that will help you fall into a relaxing,
renewing, deep sleep.
Frozen Bananas
Frozen
bananas can be turned into a thick and tasty ice-cream. All you need is
the right technique of consistent mixing. The idea is to mix for
several minutes until the bananas turn into a creamy delight. Add a
handful of chopped peanuts for an extra tryptophan boost (a chemical
that is known to relieve tension and put you to sleep) and you have a
great combination. Not only will the potassium in the bananas help you
fall asleep faster, it can also prevent you waking up for no reason in
the middle of the night.
Low Fat Popcorn
The
carbs in popcorn will help your body better utilize tryptophan. This
happens because the tryptophan is converted into serotonin, which is
responsible for putting you to sleep and waking you up every day. Since a
heavy meal about 2 hours before sleep can actually keep you awake at
times, a low-calorie popcorn bowl is a recommended treat for late night
snacks. If you want to add some flavor, we suggest some curry powder or
garlic, instead of butter.
Halibut
The halibut fish comes with two
great sleeping aids: tryptophan and vitamin B6. It has a meaty, gentle
texture - recommended for sea food lovers.
Other foods rich in Tryptophan:
Chicken, Beef, soy, yogurt, bananas, peanuts and eggs.
Mango Shake
Mangos are packed with antioxidants, proteins, and vitamins and are also a natural sweet that can help banish your sugar cravings.
To make a mango shake:
Cut up a fresh mango and put it in the blender. Add a scoop-full of ice, a small scoop of low-fat Greek yogurt and just a little splash of milk or water. To make it a little sweeter, you can add a bit of honey. And if you don't like mangoes, the same can be done with strawberries in the winter and watermelons in the summer.

Dried Cherries
A
handful of dried cherries won't just provide you with a dose of carbs
and serotonin, it is also one of the better-known sources of melatonin
- a sleep-inducing hormone (also essential in preventing jet-lag). If
that's not enough for you, dried cherries are also packed with
antioxidants.
