Other Foods for Better Sleep

I mentioned in the past that there are certain foods for better sleep:

1. Foods containing zinc and magnesium

These minerals are important for healthy sleep. You can use magnesium or zinc supplement for sleep support, or you can get it through nutrition.

Good sources of magnesium are: dark leafy greens, nuts and seeds (especially pumpkin seeds), fish, legumes, whole grains, avocado, bananas, plain yogurt, dried fruits and dark chocolate.

Good sources of zinc are: seafood, beef and lamb, beans, nuts and seeds, wheat germ and dairy products. Combine these foods and eat them for dinner to get into sleepy mood.

2. Foods containing melatonin

Melatonin is a hormone made by a small gland in the brain. Melatonin helps control your sleep and wake cycles. Cherries are one of the most concentrated sources of melatonin, and very small amounts of it are found in foods such as banana, rice, tomatoes, almonds, seeds and oats. You can also buy it as a supplement.
