 Everybody loves to achieve a good and sound sleep at night. In fact, we spend 1/3 of our lives in it. Tips on getting a better sleep include:

 In connection to eating the right foods, here are eight best foods that you can eat before going to bed at night:

1. Tryptophan

This amino acid is found in all types of food such as turkey, produces serotonin that helps promote sleep.

2. Whole Grains

Carbohydrate-containing foods such as breads, crackers, pastas, low-fat dairy and protein help the brain absorb tryptophan-rich foods.

3. Cherries

Cherries are natural producers of melatonin which aids sleep. Drinking cherry juice before bedtime could help ease insomnia.

4. Walnuts

These nuts are also rich in melatonin. Studies show that eating walnuts increases blood levels which improve sleep-wake cycle.

5. Banana Smoothie

This smoothie is a blend of banana and low-fat milk which supplies vitamin D and calcium to the body. These mentioned nutrients make it easier to fall and stay asleep.

6. Ginger Tea

Drinking a cup of ginger tea before bedtime could help set up a sleep ritual that tells your brain it's time to turn off and go to bed according to experts.

7. Dark Leafy Greens And Avocado

Dark Leafy Greens and avocado are rich in magnesium which has a positive effect on the quality of sleep especially for those who suffer from insomnia.

8. Glass of Warm Milk

Drinking a glass of warm milk could help you sleep better. It is rich in tryptophan which helps in the production of serotonin and melatonin which are great sleeping aids.

Eating healthy before going to bed can truly promote good quality sleep. Aside from that, experts suggest
