A Diet for Sleep

Hello Beloved! We hope this post finds you bright-eyed from your improved sleep. This week's temple building tip is to eat and drink for sleep. Eat and drink for sleep? Yes! What we eat and drink throughout the day, but especially in the hours leading up to sleep, can have a huge impact on the quality of sleep we enjoy. The sleep experts at the Alaska Sleep Clinic suggest that our last meal occurs at least 1 hour before bedtime, be moderate in portion size and void of the following types of foods and drinks:
​
  1. Foods and drinks that contain caffeine, because of their tendency to encourage hyperactivity in the brain.
  2. Spicy foods, because of their connection to heartburn and indigestion, especially when lying down.
  3. Alcohol, because it prohibits entry to deeper realms of sleep.
  4. Foods high in fat, because of its correlation with the painful and sleep disruptive episodes of acid reflux.
  5. Foods high in protein, because of the demand it places on the digestive system as it is being digested.
  6. Foods containing water, because of the likelihood of sleep being disrupted by frequent bathroom breaks.

Happy temple building.

Take care. Bless many.
