FULL STORY:  Did you know that eating the wrong food can make you have a bad night’s sleep?

Do you wake up in the middle of the night, or feel restless throughout the day?  Do you have heartburn or an upset stomach?  If so, they’re all signs FOOD might be interfering with your sleep.

Here are the foods to stay away from if you want a better night’s sleep . . .

1.  Processed junk food.

2.  Anything with high fat or acid content. 

3.  Anything with caffeine.  Coffee, soda, some teas, and even chocolate.  Experts say to avoid it a few hours before bedtime.

4.  Greasy, heavy meals.

It’s also recommended to cut down your portion sizes.  If you’re too full, you won’t sleep well.  And alcohol as a nightcap is no good either.

On the flipside, here are the best foods to eat for a BETTER night’s sleep:  Bananas . . . almonds . . . cherries . . . oatmeal . . . turkey . . . kiwi . . . Greek yogurt . . . and warm milk.
