- Fat - high-fat foods make your digestive system work double time and can also increase heartburn.
- Liquor - alcohol may seem relaxing at first but it screws up your blood sugar levels and interferes with your brain function including the production of serotonin, the natural chemical your body produces to make you sleepy.
- Artificial sweeteners - worse than sugar, artificial sweeteners will literally keep you up all night. Aspartame and NutraSweet contain aspartic acid which will excite your nervous system.
- Caffeine - coffee and tea are first on the list when we think of caffeine but also keep in mind that some sodas and chocolate have caffeine.
- Spicy food - spicy foods including garlic, hot peppers and overly seasoned foods are all too stimulating for your brain and body to handle before bed.
