Foods For a Good Nights Sleep

[Sean01]

Could someone explain to me why you all need/want to eat/drink before going to bed please?

I do it because I don't want to wake up in the middle of the night hungry/thirsty. Our bodies are working 24/7 - admittedly at a lower rate when we sleep but we are still using energy, so it is possible to create an energy deficit.

Amitryptiline is an anti-depressant and not an anti-psychotic. It's a very old anti-depressant and not employed regularly by psychiatrists or GP's.

Amitriptyline is an anti-depressant but it is also used as a muscle relaxer at night for people who suffer from arthritis so they don't wake with as much joint stiffness.
