Foods that make you sleep better

A healthy sleep is a shortcut to a healthy life.

But owing to stress, unpredicable routines, bad dietary habits and other lifestyle factors, many of us have trouble falling asleep, while others have trouble staying asleep.

A new study from the University of Pennsylvania says that the key nutrients like carbohydrates, calcium and magnesium play an important role in regulating sleep.

Eating the correct foods just before you hit the bed may help you fall asleep faster and deeper.

Here is a list of foods which can act as ‘sleep promoters’ if you have them before bedtime:

1. Bananas
2. Honey
3. Walnuts
4. Almonds
5. Eggs
6. Lettuce
7. Cherry
8. Diary products (milk, curd, cheese, etc.)
9. Cornflakes
10. Chamomile tea
