19/06: Top 10 Foods That Will Help You Sleep

It may seem like an old wives' tale, but it's not. Certain foods really can make you sleepy. So if you're having trouble falling asleep, try nature's sleeping pill before you hit the medicine cabinet, reports RealAge.com. These foods will not only help your muscles relax, but also quiet a busy mind and even induce two sleep hormones, serotonin and melatonin.

The top 10 foods that will help you sleep, according to RealAge.com:

1. Bananas
"They're practically a sleeping pill in a peel," quips RealAge.com. Each tasty bite contains melatonin and serotonin to make you sleepy, as well as magnesium, a known muscle relaxant.

2. Chamomile tea
This herbal tea is not only caffeine-free, but also has a mild sedating effect.

3. Warm milk
Mom was right! Milk contains a trace of tryptophan, an amino acid with a sedative-like effect, as well as calcium, which helps the brain process tryptophan.

4. Honey
If you're really wide awake, put a teaspoon or two of honey in warm milk or chamomile tea. This tiny bit of glucose will send a message to your brain to turn off orexin, a neurotransmitter that has been linked to alertness.

5. Potatoes
A small potato--about the size of your computer mouse--will eliminate acids that can interfere with tryptophan. Supercharge it by mashing it with some warm milk.

6. Oatmeal
Oats are a wonderful source of melatonin. Make it with warm milk and a drizzle of honey and you'll be lucky to make it to your bed before dozing off.

7. Almonds
Not only are almonds good for your heart, but also since they contain tryptophan and magnesium they can make you sleepy. Very, very sleepy.

8. Flaxseeds
Can't fall asleep because you're feeling a little blue? Sprinkle some flaxseeds on your bedtime oatmeal. Rich in omega-3 fatty acids, they'll perk your mood up and help your forget your troubles.

9. Whole wheat bread
Make a cup of chamomile tea and drizzle honey on whole wheat toast. Enjoy. The combination will release insulin, which helps tryptophan get to your brain where it's converted to serotonin. Zzzzzz...

10. Turkey
Arguably the most famous sleep-inducing food, turkey is packed with tryptophan. Eat a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread, and you'll be in Snooze City soon.

Don't want to eat a snack before bed? Then eat one of these dinners, recommended by DrSears.com as the best dinners for a good night's sleep. They're high in carbohydrates and low in protein, which will help you relax. Large, high-fat meals can keep you awake all night.

Best sleepy-time dinners:
Pasta with parmesan cheese
Scrambled eggs and cheese
Tofu stir-fry
Hummus with whole wheat pita bread
Seafood, pasta, and cottage cheese
Meats and poultry with veggies
Tuna salad sandwich
Chili with beans, not spicy
Sesame seeds sprinkled on salad with tuna chunks and whole wheat crackers

04/06: 5 Unhealthiest Drinks Exposed.

 

Americans have a drinking problem, and not the type you might think. After posting a blog a few weeks ago called "Belt-Busting Beverages," we received hundreds of comments from the Yahoo community claiming they had no idea the stuff they drink could be so hazardous to their waistlines.

Here's a typical refrain voiced by one disturbed drinker: "I know a lot of people that are battling with their weight, and they tell me all the time, 'I don't eat that much, and I still can't lose weight.' "
 
Whether you are a desperate dieter or just someone looking to drop another few pounds in time for beach season, here's a tough stat to swallow: According to the FDA, the average American takes in 82 grams of added sugars every day. That's 20 teaspoons, which contribute an empty 317 calories to our already calorie-saturated diets.

Sure, some of that comes from soda, but even if you've traded regular Coke for diet, whole milk coffee drinks for low-fat lattes, and you barely touch the booze, you could still be taking in 20 percent or more of your calories from beverages. Add a few of those other indulgences in - or consume one of the liquid disasters listed here - and you can suddenly be sucking in a few days' worth of calories through a straw!

(You read that last sentence right.) 

To give you a better idea of the drinks most responsible for sabotaging your health, fitness, and weight-loss goals, we created a list of America's Unhealthiest Drinks. Read up, then sip responsibly.

5. Worst "Healthy" Drink
Glaceau VitaminWater (any flavor 20oz bottle)
130 calories, 33 grams of sugar.
Vitamins and water might seem like a good idea but what they don't advertise is that this water contains nearly as much calories and sugar as a can of soda. It should be no surprise that this stuff is made by The Coca-Cola Company.

4. Worst Juice Imposter
Arizona Kiwi Strawberry (23.5 oz can)
360 calories, 84 grams of sugar.
These bottles which are just 5 percent juice cost 99 cents which makes them one of the cheapest source of empty calories in the country.

3. Worst Smoothie
Jamba Juice Peanut Butter Moo'd Power Smoothie (30 oz)
169 grams of sugar, 30 grams of fat
Whether you call it a smoothie or a milk shake, it has more sugar than a bag of chocolate chips.

2. Worst Summer Cocktail
Pina Colada
625 calories, 75 grams of sugar
Because of the super sweet pineapple juice and fatty coconut milk, the only wise thing to consume here may be the garnish. Try a lime daiquiri or mojito instead and save 400 calories.

1. The Unhealthiest Drink In America
Baskin Robbin's Large Heath Bar Shake (32. oz)
2,310 calories, 266 grams of sugar, 108 grams of fat
73 ingredients go into this milk shake.
66 teaspoons of sugar.
11 Heath bars equal the calories in this shake
8-12 minutes to consume this drink.
240 minutes on a treadmill running at a moderate pace to burn it off.
