5.Cheese
A slice of cheese and off to bed? This is not a good idea for our health, nor for our line. Most cheeses are very high in fat and are likely to raise bad cholesterol levels , as fat stores more in the body in the evening. This type of food must therefore be consumed if it is eliminated within hours of consumption.
If you are a fan of cheese, choose those with a lower caloric intake such as fresh goat cheeses or low-fat cheeses .
6.Chilli
Chilli , like pepper , has the effect of increasing body temperature. However, to go from a state of wakefulness to a state of sleep, the body needs to lower its temperature . The higher the body temperature, the less easy it is to fall asleep.
To sleep well, it is best to avoid spicy and spicy dishes .
7.garlic
Condiments of the allium family such as garlic should be avoided because they cause acidity in the stomach and cause gastric reflux , which does not promote good digestion and prevents restful sleep .
It is therefore better to favor them during lunch for easier digestion in the afternoon or replace them with onions.
8.orange
The received idea concerning the vitamin C contained in the orange does not seem justified: vitamin C, known for its “boost” effect, does not cause insomnia or sleep disturbances .
However, if the arms of Morpheus are already complicated to reach, it is better to refrain from consuming citrus fruits in the evening , if only to avoid somatization…
9.The biscuits
Biscuits , rich in sugars and fats, are strongly discouraged, especially in the evening.
They bring no essential nutrients to the body except perhaps if you are about to run a marathon: in this case, the fast carbohydrates they contain provide energy. If you practice sports in the evening, they can therefore be consumed but in minimal quantities. It is also preferable in case of physical effort to eat a banana which also brings potassium and magnesium .
10.Ice
Ice cream is high in fat and sugar. If they are the perfect accompaniment to a good television series, a few hours later they remain on the stomach and delay the hour of falling asleep .
If you are a fan of frozen pleasures, prefer sorbets , which are more digestible and less caloric.
