Nutrition and sleep

Duration and quality of sleep majorly depends on what we eat and when we eat.
For instance, eating high spicy or fatty foods close to bed time is not a wise choice as the digestion will be delayed and indigestion causes disturbed sleep mainly for people with acid reflux.
Dehydration or lack of water intake throughout the day causes muscle cramps and fatigue which also hinders the sleep at night.

Munch around on healthy foods.

Between your main meals like Breakfast, Lunch or dinner incase of cravings or hunger consume a handful of roasted peanuts or mixed nuts or a fruit instead of biscuits or chocolates.
You can also try having a glass of water as dehydration can also trigger cravings.
