10 Foods That Help You Sleep
Food #1: Kiwifruit
Kiwifruit is well known for its health benefits courtesy of its high oxidant levels. Kiwi boosts the immune system, and also improves the circulatory and respiratory systems. The resultant good health can help support other body functions including sleep. But there is more to kiwi than that. Kiwi fruit contains serotonin, the neurotransmitter that helps you sleep.
Eating one or two kiwi fruits before bed can help you sleep sooner and for longer. In a study conducted on people with sleep problems, the group who ate kiwi daily slept faster upon getting to bed, had fewer sleep disturbances, and slept longer than those who didn’t eat kiwi fruit.
