Insomnia is a problem that affects more and more people. And that’s bad, because due to lack of sleep we negatively affect our whole life. Sleep is very important for each of us and the body needs to be provided with it.
But not with pills, which can cause a lot of harm in the body because of the chemicals they contain. It’s best to choose a natural approach.
Why is sleep so important?
You may not realize it, but sleep is very important for the human body. Experts recommend sleeping about 8 hours a day.
Thanks to that we can gather the energy to get through the entire following day without problems.
Sleep is also important for the overall regeneration of our body — both physically and mentally.
And what if you know all this but still can’t fall asleep? Try a banana.
When we look at other benefits of sleep, sufficient sleep affects proper metabolism, can improve our immune system, and also contributes to a good mood during the day.
Drink for sleep
We need:
- a pot of hot water
- a banana
- half a teaspoon of cinnamon
Add one whole banana with the cut end into the pot of water. Then add the cinnamon and bring to a boil. Let it cook for 10 minutes and then take it off the stove. Remove the banana and pour the liquid into a cup. When it cools down a bit, drink it.
Then go lie down and you’ll see that in a matter of seconds, or at most a few minutes, you’ll fall asleep.
How is this possible?
Why is this banana drink with cinnamon better than any chemical-filled pills? It’s simple. With this drink you get magnesium and potassium into your body. Both substances have a very positive effect on sleep — both on the overall relaxation of your muscles and on problems related to waking up early during the night.
Other effects also include a positive influence on the cardiovascular system and a slowing down of the body’s aging processes.
