Having trouble sleeping lately?
Here’s something simple you can try, sweet potatoes in the evening. 🌙
Sweet potatoes are one of nature’s perfect foods for grounding the body and calming the mind.
They’re a complex carbohydrate rich in fiber and natural sugars that release slowly into the bloodstream.
That means no blood sugar crashes, no midnight wake-ups, just steady, gentle energy to help your body relax into rest.
But that’s not all...
Sweet potatoes are loaded with nutrients that support your sleep hormones:
💛 Vitamin B6 helps your body convert tryptophan into serotonin, which later becomes melatonin, the hormone that helps you drift off naturally.
💚 Magnesium and potassium relax the muscles, calm the nervous system, and lower cortisol, your stress hormone.
So instead of reaching for sleeping pills or sugar before bed, try this:
Bake or steam a small sweet potato, drizzle a little coconut oil on top, and eat it a couple of hours before sleep.
You’ll nourish your body, balance your blood sugar, and support deep, uninterrupted rest. 😴
Remember, nature always provides what we need when we listen.
