HOW TO HAVE GOOD SLEEP-The breakfast connection(part 2)

Skipp

ing breakfast can lead to insomnia(lack of sleep).People who don’t eat breakfast often have more caffeine or sugar snacks to kick-start their day.Their metabolisms are slower and they tend to have higher levels of arenaline(the “stress hormone”). It goes goes back to our hunter-gatherer physiology-if our bodies decide we in famine, they conserve fat and increase adnaline to give us the energy to capture food.

Having breakfast within the “metabolic windows” of 30-45 minutes after waking.A morning snack will help balance blood sugar and minimise adrenaline production.

swap your cupof tea for chamomile tea.Camomile is fatastic for reducing adrenaline.it’s calming,sedative and anti-inflammatory and analgestic.

A healthy diet with lots of fruit and vegetables in the morning,coupled with healthy fats, protein and slow release wholegrains is good for break

fast.
