Insomnia Cure?

What you're about to read isn't an insomnia cure since it probably doesn't get to the root of why you aren't sleeping (stress, over-eating, hormonal imbalance, etc, etc, etc), but it is an all-natural tip to help on those nights when you can't get into dreamland.

As you probably know, serotonin initiates feelings of relaxation, well-being, and fullness.

Well, walnuts are one of the richest dietary source of serotonin.

In addition to helping you relax and nod off, walnuts also help lower cholesterol and improve mood.

So the next time you feel insomnia coming on, try eating a 1-ounce serving of walnuts just before going to bed.
