1.Ice cream
Given the ice cream contains fat, it is not the best choice you can eat at night. Ice cream is also high in sugar, and consuming too much sugar before bed can keep you awake.
2.Chocolate
Do not eat chocolate before bed. Just like coffee, chocolate also contains caffeine. Caffeine is a stimulant that can increase energy and mental alertness so that it can interfere with your sleep.
3.Spicy food
Sleeping after eating spicy foods can trigger heartburn or acid reflux, which can keep you awake at night. Spicy foods can also increase body temperature, which can also damage the quality of your sleep.
4.Bread, pasta and cereals
Bread, pasta and cereals contain carbohydrates that can increase blood sugar levels, and make it harder to fall asleep.
5.Red meat and fatty foods
Red meat and high-fat foods take a long time to digest. If you eat red meat or fatty foods a few hours before bed, the food can cause discomfort (gas and bloating) in the stomach, and make you wake up feeling weak in the morning. You are advised to avoid high fat and oily foods at least three hours before bedtime.
