2. Chocolate
A cup of hot chocolate and a cookie before bed sounds like the perfect comforting snack to end the day with, but in reality, you’re only harming your sleeping patterns. The caffeine in the chocolate doesn’t let your body reach that deep sleep that it needs. Even though chocolate does not have as much caffeine as a cup of coffee, it’s still enough to ruin your good night’s sleep.
Dark chocolate especially has a higher amount of caffeine than milk chocolate, so if you truly enjoy this type of treat, make sure you consume it in the morning for a boost of energy and better focus. Instead, you might want to try this decaffeinated chocolate black tea to avoid restless nights.
