Foods to Eat for Better Sleep - Pt. 2

Gail Dixon-McBride
About this episode

Aside from assisting in a better night's sleep, tart cherry juice has multiple health benefits. An eight-ounce serving contains 62 percent of our daily vitamin A needs, 40 percent of vitamin C, and 14 percent of manganese.

Dehydration can prevent people from sleeping deeply, and cantaloupes provide enough water to combat this. Cantaloupes also supply almost 100% of your daily requirements for vitamins A and C. These minerals act as antioxidants that help you sleep soundly.

Join Partners in Health and Biz talk show host Gail Dixon-McBride as she shares the last 21 foods of 40, that will help you get a better night's sleep.

Listen to part 1 of this episode to learn the first 19 foods for a better night's sleep!
