Foods That Can Cause Insomnia. If you do not get quality sleep at night, take a look at your diet to see if the food you are consuming is the reason for your insomnia. Spicy foods, desserts, chocolate, soda and coffee are some food items that affect sleep. Common reasons for insomnia include consuming caffeine, and food sensitivity or food allergy. Caffeine stimulates the nerves, which is great for activity during the day. But, if consumed before bedtime, it can affect sleep. Some common caffeine carrying items include tea, cough and cold medicine, soda and coffee.
Unhealthy lifestyles and sleep habits can create insomnia on their own (without any underlying psychiatric or medical problem), or they can make insomnia caused by another problem worse. Examples of how specific lifestyles and sleep habits can lead to insomnia are: 1  You work at home in the evenings. 2  You take naps (even if they are short) in the afternoon. 3  You sometimes sleep in later to make up for lost sleep.  You are a shift worker (meaning that you work irregular hours).
