What I eat at night and how I eat greatly affect my sleep these days. I don't remember it having as much of affect in past years. I also admit I was way too tough and unbreakable in my younger years. The worst nights for me and sleep involve eating out, Mexican and Pizza. On these nights I tend to eat too much and it is not quality food. I won't sleep all night. It's easy to overdo it with fried seafood also. These meals are almost the only times I drink alcohol anymore. I don't eat much wheat anymore but I eat the wheat products in these meals also.
In my younger years I noticed that alcohol affected my sleep. I would sleep all night but didn't feel refreshed. I can almost say I don't drink anymore but I still drink a little, very little.
Our tradition of eating a big meal at night is not the most healthy way to eat. Eat light at night and eat early, sleep better. Overeating, low level carbs, and alcohol are especially poor choices at later hours.
