2. When Food Disturbs Sleep 食物也会影响你的睡眠
When you eat late, you wake up tired. Your body will be busy digesting your dinner while you are trying to sleep, so you won't feel rested in the morning. Do not eat anything for at least three hours before bedtime. Also, cut back on eating bacon, cheese, chocolate, ham, potatoes, tomatoes, and sausage, especially before bed. These foods contain tyramine, which inhibits neurochemicals like norepinephrine and can cause insomnia. And, of course if you have sleep problems, caffeine should be cut out.
假如你很晚才吃晚饭的话,你醒来时会感觉到很累。在你试图想要快点入睡的同时,你的身体正在忙于消化你的晚餐,所以当你在早晨起来时你感觉就像没有睡过一样。在睡觉前三小时内不要吃任何食物。此外,切记少吃熏肉、奶酪、巧克力、火腿、土豆、西红柿和香肠,尤其是在睡觉前更要注意这点。这些食物包含酪胺,它会抑制诸如甲肾上腺素之类的神经化学物质并会导致你失眠。而且,假如你有睡眠问题的话,你就更不应该继续饮用咖啡因饮料。
Eat for sleep! Try eating more grains at dinner; carbohydrates tend to make people sleepy. Another snooze snack is a warm cup of milk; because milk is rich in the amino acid tryptophan, it can sometimes aid in deep sleep. Mix in natural vanilla flavoring for a soothing snack. Or if you prefer, eat 1 cup of natural yogurt an hour before bedtime.
为了睡觉而吃!试着在晚餐时多吃点谷物;碳水化合物往往会让人犯困。另一个会让你犯困的饮料就是一杯温牛奶;因为牛奶富含色氨酸,在一些情况下它有助于你进入深度睡眠。此外,你还可以在点心中加入点天然的香草调味料。如果你喜欢的话,可以在睡觉前一个小是喝杯原味的酸奶。
