Here is a good article on the health benefits of probiotic foods such as yogurt, kefir and fermented sauerkraut, etc. These are vital to stomach and intestinal health, as well as stronger immunity, and believe it or not — better sleep. Here’s an excerpt on this from the Nutrition Breakthroughs Blog:
***************************
“Yogurt is also a great choice to eat in the evening to help with sleep due to the high amount of calcium it contains. The beneficial bacteria in yogurt has been studied for its ability to create a deeper, longer-lasting sleep.”
“A 2017 study from the journal “Beneficial Microbes” tested the effects of yogurt probiotics on sleep. The researchers concluded: “These findings suggest that daily consumption of (a yogurt strain) may help to maintain sleep quality during a period of increasing stress.”
“Regarding the calcium in dairy products, William Sears, M.D. writes: “Calcium helps the brain use the amino acid tryptophan to manufacture the sleep-inducing substance melatonin. This explains why dairy products, which contain both tryptophan and calcium, are one of the top sleep-inducing foods.”
“Plain, unsweetened yogurt is healthiest and Greek yogurt is a great, high-protein choice. Fresh fruit can be added as a natural sweetener.”
