Do Not Eat Before Going To Bed, Brought to you by Taiba hospital


OOHHH i just love saying this: " wayyyyyy wayyyy mlait eshmtnee 9airaa madre shfenee ;( ? 3ad bs akil one meal at night gabl manaaam ;s " Duh !!

Eating too much before bedtime is not healthy. Have a light snack 2 hours before sleep time at the latest. This advice has simple explanation. Your organs stays awake digesting the food, so even if you fall asleep part of your body is not "sleeping" and overall you still have less effective sleep which is not restful. You will need more sleep which in turn will not let you wake up easily.

Same applies to drinking lots of water, cola or any other beverages - you will feel discomfort and will have to get up to urinate during the night. If you feel thirsty put a glass of water near the bed and take a little sip from it from time to time before you fall asleep or when you wake up during the night.

Please note that going to bed hungry or thirsty is not good either and can be just as disruptive to sleep as going to bed too full. Having very light snack or glass of milk will help you ease the hunger.
