Snacking before bed is really not very good for the body, especially if the owner of this very body is trying hard to lose weight.
But what if the feeling of hunger is so strong that you are ready to break any barrier on the way to the refrigerator?
Instead of eliminating sweets or snacks that will surely lead to extra pounds, swelling and digestive problems, try replacing them with “healthy” foods.
You can safely eat them 40-60 minutes before bed. The main thing is to observe moderation and not overeat.
Eggs are a great source of protein that keeps you feeling full for a long time. The main thing is to choose the right cooking method. The ideal snack before bed is boiled or baked eggs with a small piece of low-fat cheese.
Cottage cheese is another great option for a late-night snack. Choose low-fat options (2-5%), but don't get carried away with low-fat cottage cheese, as it contains fewer vitamins and microelements.
Kiwi is not only tasty, but also healthy. It contains serotonin, which promotes the production of melatonin and improves the quality of sleep. In addition, kiwi is rich in fiber, which helps improve digestion.
Avocado is a source of healthy fats and fiber. It quickly saturates and does not accumulate as extra pounds.
If you want something sweet, replace desserts with berries. They contain melatonin, which improves sleep, and are low in sugar. Cherries, strawberries, blueberries and currants are great choices for an evening snack.
