You should try having your last meal 1-2 hours before bed. I personally have tried eating before bed and every single time I run into the issue you present. I think that giving yourself enough time for your last meal to digest properly is very important for deep sleep.Yes I do
Yeah no problem, it’s worth a shot. It also could very well be an endotoxin/serotonin issue if you’re going to bed with undigested food in your stomach.Hm I never thought about that actually. Thanks, I'll implement it. I'm usually coming at it from an endotoxin, seretonin issue. I literally wake up an hour after going to sleep, it's so annoying.
Yes, I agree. And it helps. My nighttime calorie sources are all high in those three things.Ray has mentioned several times that calcium, sugar, and salt will get you to sleep. Ex: Feta cheese and fruit; cheese and a Coke and brined olives; lots of combinations
Yes, great point. I have a hard time getting over 40, I check twice a year.you may want to check your D levels
above 50 ng/ml
I shut coffee down at 3pm. Should I try 12? It's hard, I simply just like it. Guilty pleasure. Also shoots up temp and pulse for me with enough cream and sugar. B's definitely keep me up, I keep heavy protein like steak or liver far away from bed. Could just be hard to digest protein doing it too, though. Among other things. And vitamin D, I do the Sperti lamp in the morning. In fact, because of past sleep struggles, I usually take all supplements by noon (not that long of a list, thyroid, aspirin, k2, vitamin D). But I do use aspirin and thyroid in the evening to remain in a nice, relaxed state with high temp/pulse. It seems easy to overdo this, though, so many times I just feel "stimulated" I cannot explain it any other way. Just alert at 9-10pm, not winding down. Georgi's recommendation to do carbs and protein daytime and then fats and carbs nighttime is right in line with my experience, btw. Cheese, milk, dairy at night make me "yawn" usually after eating.When is the last time in the day you drink coffee or take another stimulant (vitamin d or b's?)
