I was reading a magazine and they had a couple of suggestions to get to get to sleep here it is:
Quote:
Attention insomniacs: Research shows that drinking a glass of milk before you go to bed can help you doze off. Hot or cold, milk contains tryptophan, an amino acid that makes your body feel sleepy. (But avoid putting chocolate syrup in it, because the caffeine will cancel out the tryptophan.) Another snooze-friendly beverage is chamomile tea, which has the antioxidants that research says produce relaxing effects. Oh, and by the way, nicotine is a stimulant, so if you light up before bed, be prepared to lie there for a while pondering what a nasty and idiotic habit smoking is.
