Getting a good night’s sleep is important for boosting our immune systems and improving our overall health. Researchers have found that some foods have sleep-promoting properties to help us get the recommended eight hours a night. Almonds are a source of the sleep-regulating hormone melatonin, making them a great before bed snack. Turkey is high in protein and contains the amino acid tryptophan, both of which can induce tiredness. Researchers have found that eating two kiwis one hour before bed can make you fall asleep 40% faster. Chamomile tea has been found to improve the quality of sleep, and also reduce symptoms of depression. Beverages that include caffeine or foods that are high in fiber should be avoided before bedtime. Some vegetables that are high in fiber, such as broccoli, can make you less comfortable while sleeping. Spicy or acidic foods can result in restlessness during the night and cause heartburn in the morning
