Our morning well-being depends on yesterday evening. And if in the evening we emptied the refrigerator, not looking at what we eat, there is nothing to complain about bad weather or storms in the Sun - poor health is caused by malnutrition.

Find out what not to eat before bed and your morning will be as pleasant as possible.

Alcohol

 

Most alcoholic beverages seem to be relaxing and help you fall asleep, but in fact, alcohol impairs the quality of sleep, acts as a strong diuretic, and causes snoring. If you don't want to wake up over and over again at night, limit your alcohol intake before bed.

Chocolate

Do not get carried away with dark chocolate before bedtime. This is dangerous not only for the figure, but also for sleep: dark chocolate contains caffeine and theobromine, which have an exciting effect on the nervous system and can cause insomnia.

Fast food

 

French fries or a high-calorie burger are clearly not healthy food - especially in the evening, when the body is already preparing for bed. A record amount of fats and carbohydrates will not have the best effect on your figure, moreover, a feeling of heaviness in the stomach is guaranteed.

Hen

Chicken meat is an excellent source of protein. But a portion of protein at night activates digestion, which gives the body extra work: instead of sleeping, we digest the portion of protein we don’t need at night.

hot spices

If heartburn torments you at night, remember if you used hot spices at night? It is they, in addition to sweets and fast food, that cause heartburn and, as a result, restless sleep.

Sweets

 

Ice cream, sweet pastries, sweets and desserts contain a lot of glucose, which first raises and then sharply lowers blood sugar levels. Pay special attention to coffee desserts - they contain caffeine, as well as sugary cereals - they often contain more glucose than chocolate.

Baking with garlic

As a rule, buns and bread with garlic are prepared with yeast, which contributes to the fermentation process in the stomach. This causes heartburn and a feeling of heaviness at bedtime. In addition, garlic can cause indigestion and make you feel unwell.

soda drinks

 

It often seems that diet soda contains no sugar, but this is far from the case. Diet soda does have less sugar than the classic version, but due to its high levels of glucose and caffeine, it's clearly not the best nighttime drink. In addition, soda promotes weight gain.

Pasta

How do we cook pasta? That's right: add a generous portion of cheese, fat or sauce to them. In combination with a high level of starch and carbohydrates, such a dish will provide a restless night and heaviness in the body, as well as add extra grams.

Fruits

 

Do not assume that fruits at night cannot harm us - for example, a fruit salad of cranberries, watermelons or oranges will cause frequent urination. Other fruits, such as tangerines, figs, bananas, or mangoes, are high in sugar, which can spike blood glucose levels.
