Experts say that bananas are an excellent bedtime snack for people who have trouble sleeping and insomnia.

Doctors from Sleep Charity (UK) say that the quality of sleep at night may depend on what a person eats shortly before.

They emphasized, “Eating in the evening is definitely the key to getting a good night’s rest. Health experts quote some foods that calm the brain and help you fall asleep quickly:

And experts advised people who suffer from insomnia to snack on bananas. According to them, eating a banana shortly before bedtime stimulates the production of key hormones that calm the brain and create the necessary calm for the body at that moment. In particular, the tryptophan present in the fruit is responsible for “turning on” hormones that calm the brain.

Bananas are rich in magnesium and potassium, which help relax the muscles and mind. Eat a whole banana or make a smoothie,” the doctors add.

They also recommend that people with insomnia control their caffeine and alcohol intake. Experts pointed out that many people are ignorant of the amount of caffeine they consume in a day, and pointed out that tea, some soft drinks, chocolate, energy drinks and some pain relievers contain this stimulant.
