[#Steeven.™]

Some meals can cause us not to sleep or it costs us more to fall asleep

 

Today, society is increasingly aware of the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle. Being physically active during the week, respecting sleep schedules and eating a varied and healthy diet is something that many people propose. Eating healthy, low-fat foods that contain the nutrients that our body needs is essential to get the most out of our body.

However, many people who set out to acquire beneficial habits and eat a healthy diet do not know certain aspects that make them make some mistakes. For example, not indulging in a little whim from time to time can make following the diet for a long period of time tiring and we end up quitting.

Another of the most common mistakes is that of the food eaten at dinner. First of all, we must remember that we must ensure that dinner is two hours before going to sleep. It is also important not to forget that the intake of a food at 10:00 am and at 9:00 pm fattens exactly the same. However, there are foods that we must avoid at night for the sake of our digestion and to get a good rest, something essential to be able to enjoy 100% of our day to day.

 

Fruits that contain a lot of water will not help us

Not a few people believe that eating fruit is something light and beneficial for the body. And yes, they are right. The negative part is that if we eat fruit with a lot of water such as melon, watermelon, pineapple, etc. it can happen to us that throughout the night we have to get up several times to the service. Being diuretics, these foods will make us eliminate liquids, something that is not negative, but that will reveal us at dawn. Therefore, it is not the best option if we have to get up early the next day.

 

Red meat will make our digestion heavier

The high amount of protein contained in red meat makes it difficult for our body to digest it more. Not to mention that Health recommends not to take this food more than twice a week and even less processed meat. If we seek to supply our body with protein, we can obtain it from other foods, such as fish.

 

Pasta is not a good option

Possibly it is known to all that pasta is not a good companion for the night. But, despite everything, many people turn to it when they get home tired, for its simple elaboration. In addition, since we hardly dirty utensils for its preparation, it is a very comfortable meal for before bed. But, its high level of carbohydrates makes this food difficult to eat. The same goes for bread. If we still want to have delicious spaghetti or macaroni for dinner, we can opt for whole grains.

 

Chocolate will make it difficult for us to sleep

Without a doubt, chocolate is one of the most tempting foods. Finishing dinner with a piece of chocolate is usually a very appetizing custom, but not recommended. If we avoid drinking coffee at night to fall asleep, we should do the same with this food. And is that chocolate contains caffeine and other stimulants such as theobrine, which causes an increase in heart rate and makes it difficult for us to relax.

 

Mushrooms and mushrooms can give us the night

Despite the fact that mushrooms are a very complete food, we must consume them in small quantities, even more so if we do it before going to bed. And, this food is very indigestible. If we consume too much, we may find it difficult to fall asleep. But neither should we be alarmed. For a few mushrooms that we add to a salad, nothing will happen.
