I suspect that if milk were that useful for insomnia, nobody would need sleeping pills.
Test it out....have milk before retiring tonight and see what happens.
Then, none next night and see the result and so on.
(Can you tell I have a scientific background?)
Laying in bed trying to sleep when is often counter productive. Actually getting up and making a hot drink, relaxing then going back to bed probably helped more than the actual drink itself. I usually get up and make a cup of tea, have a biscuit with it, then when I go back to bed I'm out like a light.
Have never tried these but would Ovaltine, Horlicks help too.
Also wouldn't Hot Chocolate pile on "more" pounds.
Yes you are very lucky Ginge, sleep is wonderful. I have a cousin who just puts her head on the pillow and begins to snore right away, she goes into a coma. Not for me.
jennyjoan then go get some sleeping tablets. I can't understand why folks put up with insomnia when 7.5mg of Zopiclone would give then a good nights sleep.
my American friend taught me that - she used to say when I was in bad form - OMG - here comes the raped Ape.
my American boyfriend at the time, used to say when we were having a drink in America - "Here's to me and here's to you and may we never disagree, but if we do, funk you, here's to me.
Zopiclone, and indeed most sleeping tablets, are only prescribed for a maximum of two weeks these days as they’re highly addictive.
Yes, they’re only available on prescription as far as I’m aware.
