Diet, exercise, and supplements won’t work as well if your sleep quality is poor. Sleep is essential for detoxifying the brain, making healthy sleep a critical part of your overall health.

Diet also plays an important role in sleep quality. Snacking late at night can interfere with healthy sleep. Try eating earlier and practicing intermittent fasting and a low-carb diet. Kefir and L. reuteri yogurt are two foods that can help support better sleep.

Alcohol may seem to help you fall asleep, but it can interfere with sleep quality and inhibit deep sleep. Caffeine can also keep you awake, so watch out for hidden sources of caffeine.

Stretching before bed and focusing on hobbies that reduce stress during the day can also help you relax and sleep better.

Adequate sodium and potassium, along with magnesium glycinate before bed, can support better sleep. Vitamin D and white noise are also beneficial.

If you’re just starting keto and having trouble sleeping through the night, you may notice improvements within 1 to 2 weeks as your body adjusts to burning fat.

Stop snacking before bed! One of the easiest ways to do this is to stop buying snack foods. Focus on choline-rich and sulfur-rich foods to support liver health and help fuel your brain throughout the night.
