We’ve all heard of an apple a day, but what about the benefi ts of a banana? Packed with essential nutrients, this superfood-superhero can support a good night’s kip according to sleep expert, Jasmin Lee, and here’s why: They boost serotonin levels: Bananas contain an essential amino acid called tryptophan.“Tryptophan helps to produce serotonin, which is a neurotransmitter that promotes relaxation”, Lee explains. As our bodies are unable to produce tryptophan, eating a banana will naturally boost serotonin levels, leading to better relaxation. They help to ease muscle cramps: If muscle stiffness keeps you awake at night, it could be because your potassium levels are low. The extra potassium from eating a banana helps stop and start muscle contractions, therefore easing those stubborn night cramps. They help you stress less: Bananas are also rich in magnesium, a mineral that affects the release of our hormones. When our magnesium levels are low, our stress hormones increase. Lee continues, “Stress and anxiety are often associated with sleep disorders like insomnia, so a banana might be the perfect snack to help calm down before going to sleep.” Visit www.eachnight.com to fi nd our more.
