Dr. Hauri also recommends that you avoid eating a heavy dinner as your body will be working overtime to digest it and this may further disrupt your sleep. He recommends a “triangle” plan—a large breakfast to start the day, a lighter lunch, and an even lighter meal for dinner—to ensure that you are not trying to digest a large meal right before you go to bed. Snacking is not discouraged, but eat proteins that are easy to digest. This will keep your blood sugar levels even and not create the energy dips that leave you reaching for sugar.
