I heard that it’s best to drink milk if you have insomnia, is this rumor accurate and if true, what milk should you drink if you have insomnia? Bneuron experts’ answers to the above issue will be summarized in the article below.
1. If you have insomnia, what milk should you drink?
Anyone who suffers from insomnia has heard advice from doctors that drinking a glass of warm milk before going to bed helps improve sleep.
However, not all types of milk help improve sleep, some types of milk even cause bloating, difficulty absorbing or contain some substances that negatively affect sleep, typically caffeine. So what milk should you drink for insomnia?
According to nutritionists’ recommendations, milk that helps you sleep well must be milk that contains ingredients such as:
- Tryptophan: is an essential amino acid for the synthesis of serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in sleep. Serotonin then produces melatonin, a hormone that regulates the sleep-wake cycle. Therefore, supplementing tryptophan-rich milk will help improve sleep quality.
- Melatonin: in the dark, the brain produces a hormone commonly called the sleep hormone, Melatonin. This hormone helps shorten the time it takes to fall asleep, and orients the body’s biological clock. Melatonin supplements have been shown to help improve overall sleep quality.
- Casein trypsin hydrolysate (CTH): CTH’s ability to improve insomnia is proven to be due to the peptides found in it. These peptides (amino acid chains) bind with GABA to help sleep faster and deeper, improving sleep disorders.
