The Worst Foods to Have Before Going to Bed
Dietitians say your late night snack might be quietly sabotaging your sleep. Certain popular foods people often reach for at night like pizza, chocolate, chips, donuts, or spicy and acidic meals can trigger blood sugar swings, acid reflux, and heavy digestion that make it harder for your body to wind down. Even foods that seem harmless can keep your system working overtime when it should be preparing for rest. Experts say the difference between waking up refreshed or exhausted could come down to what you eat in the hours before bed, and the list of common nighttime foods that disrupt sleep may surprise you.
Healthy Fact of the Day: Your body naturally experiences energy peaks and dips throughout the day, often following a rhythm known as the circadian cycle.
