What foods can and cannot be eaten before bed?

Do not eat after 18:00, do not eat 3 hours before bedtime - all these rules do not work when you are really hungry. In fact, if you really want to, you can have a snack before bed, but only with the right foods. And what - read in our material!

In the modern rhythm of life, it is very difficult to adhere to the principles of healthy eating; sometimes there is absolutely not enough time for a full breakfast or lunch, and we are content with snacks. Due to this disruption in eating behavior, the body requires food in the evening, when you are already at home and relaxed after a hard day of work.

In fact, a light dinner before bed will not harm your health and figure if the products for it are chosen correctly. Read and remember, or better yet, print it out and hang it on the refrigerator.

Can:

1. oatmeal with almond milk
2. unsweetened fermented milk products (kefir, yogurt, low-fat cottage cheese)
3. green vegetables, berries and unsweetened fruits
4. nuts
5. whole grain bread with thin slices of chicken
6. whole grain crackers

It is forbidden:

1. red and fatty meat
2. white bread and sweets
3. mayonnaise-based salads
4. sausage and smoked meat
5. sweet fruits and juices in bags
6. alcohol and coffee

Some people go into the refrigerator at night not from a real feeling of hunger, but from boredom or a bad mood, and this is a psychological problem called an eating disorder. Therefore, if your hands regularly reach for food after 22:00, stop and think about whether you really want to eat.
