The good news is that there are foods you can eat to induce sleep and if you are having trouble staying awake, there are foods to eat for that as well. In the body there is a neurotransmitter called serotonin. This neurotransmitter is used to regulate sleep, sensory perception, mood, depression and body temperature. When you ingest foods such as chicken, eggs, cheese, tuna, milk or nuts, which contain a chemical called tryptophan, the levels of serotonin in the body increase, which helps to induce sleep.
The first out of the worst foods to eat before bed that I want to list out here is chicken meat. Protein in chicken will be counterproductive if you consume this food at night right before going to bed. Human digestion is supposed to slow by 50% while you are sleeping.
