Natural drinks can become a good analogue of sleeping pills for those who do not want to resort to pharmacological agents again.
One of the best drinks for sleep is cherry juice, as it is high in tryptophan. It is an amino acid necessary for the production of the hormone melatonin on which human sleep and quality depend. Two glasses of juice per day are enough to reduce unexpected awakenings during the night and facilitate sleep.
Chamomile tea works no less effectively. Four tablespoons per cup of boiled water once daily for two weeks can relieve symptoms of severe insomnia, improve skin condition and help with colds, according to the Federal News Agency.
Experts also recommend Indian ginseng, which has a calming effect, helping the body to relax and prepare for rest. Moreover, bedtime is of great importance: it is best to go to bed during the period when the body produces the most melatonin, that is, from about 20:30 to 23:00
