Tips for Better Sleep and Meal Timing for Health

Maintaining a consistent sleep schedule, including going to bed and waking up at the same time, as well as having meals at regular times, is crucial for better health. Avoiding heavy meals and eating at least three hours before bedtime can improve sleep quality. Consuming starchy foods like sweet potatoes at night can elevate serotonin levels and aid sleep. It is important to avoid processed foods, ensure adequate food intake, and consider time-restricted eating for longevity. Writing down worries before bed and using supplements like magnesium, glycine, melatonin, and ashwagandha can promote relaxation and improve sleep quality. Creating a sleep-supportive environment, limiting caffeine and alcohol intake, and getting sunlight exposure in the morning can also positively impact sleep patterns.
