A Better Bedtime Snack



Did you know that cherries have a high melatonin content?  According to Michael Breus, clinical psychologist & co-author of The Sleep Doctor's Diet Plan, tart cherries are better than a glass of warm milk at bedtime.  This helps with sleep onset & sleep quality.

8 Foods That Naturally Increase Melatonin for Better Sleep

The researchers found pineapples, bananas, and oranges were able to increase melatonin presence significantly. Pineapples increased the presence of aMT6s over 266% while bananas increased levels by 180%. Oranges were able to increase melatonin by approximately 47%.

Some Melatonin-Boosting Foods Include:

  • Pineapples
  • Bananas
  • Oranges
  • Oats
  • Sweet corn
  • Rice
  • Tomatoes
  • Barley
Those with GERD may not want to have foods that would give you more acid like pineapples, oranges & tomatoes.  However, OMNITRIM CHITO® has helped me with acid reflux, so I don't need medication for this.  Also, bananas, sweet corn, & grains have a lot of carbohydrates, so might want to take Omnitrition's PhasoTrim® to help block those calories.
