Yogurt is an excellent source of calcium, which is known for keeping your bones strong, helping you sleep better. Eating yogurt at night can help reduce hunger the next morning. If yogurt is your snack of choice, choose plain and pair it with unsweetened fruit. Pistachios Pistachios stand out among other nuts due to their high sleep-promoting melatonin content. Although all plant foods are said to naturally contain this substance, few have as much as pistachios. Strawberry Strawberries are very healthy without a lot of calories. This fruit is an excellent source of vitamin C and contains a notable amount of melatonin. Cherry Some studies show that cherries can help you sleep better. What’s more, they have anti-inflammatory benefits and may protect against inflammation-related conditions like arthritis and heart disease. In a recent study, a small group of older women with insomnia drank 240ml of pure cherry juice with breakfast and 1-2 hours before bedtime. After two weeks, these people slept almost 1.5 hours more at night.
