Healthy Bedtime Snacks
I always thought that snacking after dinner packed on the pounds, but after learning that eating in the evening will lead to weight gain is a myth , I'm back to my happy-snacking ways. Knowing that eating after dinner isn't completely off limits doesn't mean you should scarf down a plate of loaded nachos before calling it a night, but if you need to eat something before bed, make sure to make the right choices by avoiding foods that can impair your quality of sleep. As a rule, avoid any spicy foods, citrus fruits, tomato sauce, and other foods that cause indigestion and possibly heartburn as well. In addition to spicy foods, fatty foods will also hinder your ability to get a good night's rest since they are harder on your digestive system, and therefore making it more difficult to sleep.
