Well, with everything that I say all the time, it's about hopefully you have a helpful diet and what that means to you. So low in ultra processed foods, low in foods that are gonna stimulate you, meaning they're gonna rise your sugar level and make 'em crash, which is your added sugar and your ultra processed foods, those in your diet will cause you to spike during the night and then crash and you end up waking up. So having less processed food in your diet would be my number one recommendation. My number two recommendation is the saying, what is it? Eat breakfast like a king eat lunch. Like a, is it a queen? I'm hoping not. Uh, a jet, let's call it adjuster and eat breakfast as, uh, dinner as a popper, meaning the majority of your food, the, the heavier foods are in the beginning of the day. So by the time you get to dinner, you're not eating a heavy meal loaded with calories or fat because that in and of itself, the increase in calories and fat will interrupt your sleep cycle. So there's that. I also am a big believer in not eating anything before you go to bed two to three hours and that you give your body the time to rest and to really have this fast cycle from two to three hours before you go to bed, until you wake up, you will feel so much better when that happens. And then how's your magnesium level? Magnesium really can help you sleep as well as having maybe a little bit of a snack. If you tend to wake up hungry, then have something with dairy in it like yogurt or actually walnuts have been shown to help with sleep. So to reiterate, making sure that ultra processed foods and high sugar foods, no caffeine sources after two o'clock in the afternoon, making sure that's your baseline, stopping eating before you go to bed. And let's not forget the whole stress part of your day. Stress. No matter how good your diet is, no matter how many supplements you're taking, if you don't have a good stress reduction technique in your day going for walks or mindfulness, however you bring it in for me, it's cooking, chopping vegetables, however you bring in mindfulness to decrease your stress. You add that on top of it. And I hope you have some happy sleeping days ahead of you, not days, nights.
