Top 10 foods for sleeping better at night

Posted on Jan 29th 2007 6:45PM by Adams Briscoe
Some people (like myself) have found out over the years that getting exercise is one of the best ways to get a good night's sleep. That's one way to go about inducing rest, but another is getting the right foods in your belly before bedtime. A common staple found in almost every kitchen is a banana. As this article so aptly puts it, bananas are like sleeping pills in a peel. The fruit contains serotonin and they also relaxe your muscles, so what better way to end the day?

Foods like this are abundant and can really help bring on the sleepiness at night. Another curious item on the list belongs in a morning meal, but oatmeal can also top off your evenings too! It contains melatonin and a host of other benefits making it worth a nibble twice a day.

So what else was on the list? How about a recipe for Lullaby Muffins, among other foods as well. You can find the other foods on the list right here including how they will help you get a better night's rest.
