30 Foods To Help You Sleep Through the Night
Hummus & Crackers
Hummus is made from chickpeas, and these are a good source of tryptophan. Eat hummus with whole grain crackers (the carbs help the tryptophan do it's job) as a small snack before bed or before a nap.
Chickpeas also pack a whopping serving of vitamin B6, which is needed for your body to naturally make melatonin. Without melatonin, our body has a hard time falling asleep. It's always better to have your body make it naturally rather than taking meds.
