Choose bedtime fruits wisely to avoid discomfort and sleep disruption. Citrus, pineapple, bananas, watermelon, papaya, and apples may affect your rest
Oranges, grapefruits, and other citrus fruits are acidic and can cause heartburn or acid reflux, which may interfere with sleep if consumed too close to bedtime
Pineapple is also acidic and can cause similar digestive issues as citrus fruits
Like pineapple, papaya contains enzymes that can cause digestive discomfort for some people if consumed too late in the evening
While apples are generally considered a healthy snack, some people may find that their high fiber content can cause bloating or digestive discomfort if eaten too close to bedtime
Watermelon has a high water content, which can lead to frequent urination during the night, disrupting sleep patterns
While bananas are often touted as a good bedtime snack due to their magnesium and potassium content, they can also be quite heavy and may cause discomfort
