About this episode

Here at Do You Really Know, we’ve talked over and over again about the importance of getting good quality sleep. So of course, you don’t want your evening meal to disrupt it, and that’s a cause of uncertainty for many people.

Bear in mind that to drift off to sleep, your body temperature needs to gradually drop. Given that digestion tends to raise our body temperature, that poses quite the conundrum. Now, the richer the meal or the heavier the food you eat, the longer it takes to be digested, which can lead to discomfort like reflux, heaviness, or bloating.

I’ve often heard that a light dinner is best - is that a good starting point? So what kind of foods should we be aiming for then? What about drinks then? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
