NOT BOTHERING WITH THE BEDTIME DRINK?

You may find the bedtime drink helps you sleep better and wake up refreshed. Warm fluids are more soothing than cold drinks at this time, when you want your body to relax. Milky drinks, including soya-based ones, are a good source of the amino acid tryptophan, consumption of which can boost brain serotonin levels, leaving you feeling relaxed and sleepy. Chamomile is a soothing herb, which can aid relaxation and help banish insomnia. If nothing else, your bedtime drink will add to your daily hydration.
