Today, I want to talk about the seven best foods you can snack on in the evening to help you get better sleep.

1. Almonds (or other nuts and seeds): Almonds are high in magnesium, also known as the relaxation mineral. Magnesium helps calm your body and mind, and it also prevents muscle cramps, which can disrupt your sleep.

2. Bananas: Bananas are not only delicious but also rich in magnesium, potassium, and vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 is essential for producing melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep.

3. Kiwis: Studies have shown that eating two kiwis before bed can help you sleep an extra hour. Kiwis are packed with vitamin C, vitamin E, serotonin, and folate, all of which promote better sleep.

4. Tart Cherry Juice: Tart cherry juice is one of the best natural sources of melatonin. Make sure to choose a tart variety without added sugar to avoid blood sugar crashes during the night.

5. Popcorn: Opt for organic popcorn cooked in quality oil, such as coconut oil. Top it with nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor and an extra boost of B vitamins, including vitamin B6, which is crucial for serotonin and melatonin production.

6. Warm Milk: If you can tolerate dairy, a warm mug of milk before bed can be very soothing. Milk is rich in calcium and tryptophan, which promote relaxation and the production of sleep hormones.

7. Hummus: Hummus is high in tryptophan, fiber, and vitamin B6. Enjoy it with vegetable sticks for a nutritious and sleep-promoting snack.

Incorporating these snacks into your evening routine can help you get better sleep and wake up feeling refreshed.
