What to eat late in the evening so as not to harm the figure

Cherry juice and chia seeds

Cherry juice (natural, not packaged nectar) is an incredibly healthy low-calorie drink that not only supplies the body with essential vitamins and antioxidants, but also stimulates the production of melatonin, the sleep hormone. Studies have shown a link between regularly drinking cherry juice at bedtime and a noticeable improvement in sleep quality — especially good for people with insomnia. A couple tablespoons of chia seeds added to the juice will provide the body with plant-based protein, fiber, and tryptophan, a precursor to melatonin. A good sleep bonus will be the high antioxidant load of these foods — while you sleep, the active ingredients in the meal will fight free radicals, reduce inflammation and slow down aging.

Banana and pumpkin seeds

Contrary to the opinion about the dangers of bananas for the figure, nutritionists recommend eating this sweet fruit at night, just in small quantities. Bananas, like cherries, are able to stimulate the production of melatonin, and their rich mineral composition will have a beneficial effect on the health of all body systems, from cardiovascular to nervous. Mash one (if the fruit is large, then half) banana with a fork and sprinkle with pumpkin seeds — they are rich in vegetable protein, healthy fats, antioxidants and vitamins.

Kiwi and pistachios

Kiwi is a unique source of vitamins and antioxidants that boasts a low calorie content. According to statistics, regular consumption of kiwi in the evening can improve sleep quality by 30-35% and help cope with insomnia. Pistachio (included in the top 3 lowest calorie nuts) is a source of active substances that accelerate the production of melatonin, which means that after such a dinner it will be much easier to fall asleep.
