How to eat a healthy late night snack?

From a health point of view, we should try our best to arrange three meals a day regularly, do not skip dinner, "go to bed hungry", but can not eat too much late night snack.

If you want to have a late night snack, it is recommended to try to:

1. Eat a midnight snack 1 to 2 hours before bedtime

It is not appropriate to eat a lot of food before going to bed, which can easily affect your sleep, resulting in poor sleep and poor spirit the next day. It is recommended to have a midnight snack 1 to 2 hours before going to bed. For example, if you plan to go to bed at 11, eat your midnight snack before 9:30.

2. Try to choose light, healthy foods

Many people like to eat instant noodles, cookies and cakes, barbecue, fried chicken, but they are basically high-fat, high-salt, high-sugar food, and are not good for health, not suitable for late-night snacks.

In addition, the night snack is not suitable for eating hot pepper, Sichuan pepper and other exciting seasoning. It is recommended to give priority to fruits, grains, beans and milk, which are low in protein and fat, easy to digest and absorb, and will not increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract.
