Let's briefly introduce the food that can't be eaten before going to bed ~
Celery: Don't eat it 90 minutes before going to bed.
The water content of celery is the same as cucumber, watermelon and radish. It is a natural diuretic. Eating too much before going to bed will increase the number of waking up and interfere with sleep.
Tomatoes: Don't eat after meals.
Tomatoes are rich in tyramine, which is an amino acid that can trigger euphoria in the brain, easily leading to brain happiness and delayed sleep. Other foods rich in tyramine include eggplant, soy sauce, red wine and cheese.
High-fat fried food: Don't eat it for 3 hours before going to bed.
High-fat foods and fried foods take longer to digest, which easily leads to abdominal discomfort and affects sleep. These foods will also affect the efficacy of some drugs taken at night.
Alcohol: Do not drink alcohol within 2 to 4 hours before going to bed.
Although a glass of red wine before going to bed can help you fall asleep faster, it will affect the quality of sleep in the later deep sleep stage.
Beans: No dinner.
Legumes can easily lead to slow digestion, flatulence in the abdomen, and reduce the quality of sleep.
Dark chocolate: Don't eat it 4 to 6 hours before going to bed.
Dark chocolate, hot cocoa and tea all contain caffeine, which can easily lead to nervous excitement and insomnia. People who are sensitive to caffeine should stay away from caffeine foods from 4: 30 pm.
Candy: Don't eat it 2-3 hours before going to bed.
Eating too much candy may lead to a rapid rise in blood sugar levels. After that, the body will secrete insulin to control it, and blood sugar will drop. This excessive blood sugar fluctuation will lead to insomnia.
Spicy food: Don't eat it 3 hours before going to bed.
Spicy food containing Chili sauce has appetizing effect, but eating it before going to bed can easily lead to heartburn and even insomnia.
Beef: Don't eat it for 3 hours before going to bed.
Steaks and roast beef rich in protein and fat are digested slowly after eating. If your body is still busy digesting food during sleep, it is difficult to ensure sleep.
Broccoli: Eat it at lunch instead.
Broccoli can delay digestion. Eating broccoli or other cruciferous vegetables for dinner can easily lead to flatulence in the abdomen and affect sleep.
