good for SLEEP:
Dream Foods:
Some foods, such as cherries, naturally contain melatonin, a hormone your brain releases before sleep. Foods with tryptophan (such as turkey) can induce drowsiness as this tryptophan. And calcicum helps the body use tryptophan, so there's something to drinking a cup of warm milk (which contains both tryptophan and calcium) before bed or to help with a bout of insomia. Eating some carbs such as a few crackers along with it may be the best bedtime snack. Carbs cause the body release insulin, which in turn make trypotphan more available to the brain.
