================== ARTICLE START ==================

What you eat during the day and evening can affect your

sleeping patterns. If your diet consists of a high amount of

processed foods you may want to try eating more wholesome

products.

You may want to eliminate, reduce, or substitute the amount of

sugars, fats, and preservatives from your daily intake of food.

This may benefit your ability to fall asleep at night as well as

improve your general health.

Eat a well balanced diet by following the recommended daily

food allowance.

Make sure you are meeting the daily requirements for fresh

fruits and vegetables. Eat complex carbohydrates and choose

protein that is low in fat. You can also choose healthy meat

substitutes, such at tofu and vegetarian burgers.

Become aware of any food allergies that you have and try to

avoid them. If your body is allergic to certain foods it may

affect the way you think and feel.

This could be a contributing factor to your sleep problem. Some

common food allergies that are known to contribute to insomnia

are corn, dairy products, wheat, and chocolate.

Try to schedule your last evening meal at least four hours

before bed. Eat a healthy, well balanced meal. Try not to

overeat as this may cause you to become tired after your meal.

You want to avoid feeling tired or napping in the early evening

hours as this will greatly hinder your ability to fall asleep at

bedtime. As well, try to eat enough so that you are not hungry

later and find yourself reaching for foods that are high in fat

or sugars.

If you find that you are hungry before bed you may find that a

small snack an hour or two before bedtime will help. Avoid

foods that are high in protein, fats, and sugars.

You should also avoid foods that are too heavy or spicy. Try a

bit of cereal and milk or one serving of low-fat yogurt. The

key idea is to provide your body with a bit of nourishment to

avoid hunger pangs and not overindulge in an evening snack.

The goal is to reduce your hunger and allow your body to rest

and relax.

Make sure that you drink enough water during the day. Studies

show that your daily recommended water intake should be around

8 glasses, or 2 liters.

If your body is well hydrated it won't signal you to wake up

during the night. Try to avoid drinking water or other liquids

one hour before bed if the need to urinate wakes you up during

the night.

The healthier you eat the more balanced you will feel both

physically and emotionally.

The target here is to get you to sleep regularly and deeply

without waking during the night.
