10 Foods You Shouldn't Eat At Night. by tobeetoe(m): 10:01pm On Jun 30, 2015

The below are foods you are advised not to
consume at night. Reason: All the below foods
if eaten consecutively at night can affect your
shape, height and other essentials.
Read:
1. Cheese
Cheese is fattening and easy to over-eat on.
Cheese should be eaten in very strict
moderation. Cheese is high in saturated fat
and cholesterol, and too much of it can
increase your risk of heart disease.
2. Citrus
Too many fruits can lead to gas at night, and
makes digestion more complicated because
sugar ferments. If you must eat some fruit
before bed, try not to eat more than a cup.
3. Spicy Food
Spicy or hot foods stimulate your senses, and
they have the ability to give heartburn or
contribute to an upset stomach, and no one
wants that before bed.
4. Fatty Food
Pizza, burgers and French-fries taste great,
but they aren’t great to your body, so don’t
eat them at night. They can mess up your
digestive system and help you pack on the
pounds. You’ll feel horrible the next day,
zapped of the energy you need to make your
day productive.
5. Red Meats
Red meats are hard to digest. That’s why you
shouldn’t eat them at night. It will be harder
to fall asleep if you do eat red meat directly
before bed.
6. Cereals
It is very difficult to follow serving suggestions
for cereal, so if you’re watching your weight,
it’s best to eat it in the morning but not late
at night.
7. Vegetables
I know I threw you off with my suggestion to
lay off of fruits and citrus before bed, but you
are probably shocked vegetables make the
list. Some vegetables are not ideal to eat
before bed. Celery, for example, celery is a
diuretic. According to this article, a diuretic
increases the rate of urination.
It’s counter-productive to eat these types of
vegetables, because you’ll be waking up more
than usual at night to use the restroom
instead of getting a good rest.
8. Junk Food
Chips and salsa, popcorn, and all that other
comfort food. Let it go. It’s not helping you
sleep better, lose weight, or be healthy.
9. Sweets
Put down that ice cream cone, candy bar, or
piece of chocolate, because they are officially
off limits before bed! Yes, these things can be
considered comfort foods, but these same
comfort foods are loaded with fat! Sugar also
keeps you up longer! It’s not the type of
combination you want while you’re trying to
go to bed!
10. Bread
Unless you’re trying to gain weight, eating
bread before going to bed is a horrible idea.
The carbs in bread can make you hungrier at
night, and cause you to overeat.
Confused? Then explore the internet and check
out other suggestions. Many of the things I’ve
listed here, are the same things health experts
elsewhere will tell you to avoid.
Some experts suggest not eating at all three to four hours before bed.
