You love to order this comforting, broth-based soup in Japanese restaurants, but keeping a few 8-ounce packs of instant miso soup at home may be key when you’re having trouble falling asleep, says Stella Metsovas, CN, a nutritionist in Laguna Beach, California. Here’s why: Miso contains amino acids that may boost the production of melatonin, a natural hormone that can help induce the yawns. Bonus: Research shows that warm liquids like soup and tea may also relieve cold symptoms, helping you sleep better when you're feeling under the weather. Photo: Shutterstock
日本豆面湯
在日式餐館里,你愛點這道溫潤體貼的高湯燉制的湯,但是,在當(dāng)你碰到睡眠問題時,家里備有一些8盎司裝的速食豆面湯可以起到重要作用,加利福利亞樂古樂沙灘地區(qū)的一個營養(yǎng)學(xué)家斯特納.馬齒蘇娃說。原因在這里:日本豆面醬里含促進褪黑激素產(chǎn)生的氨基酸,該褪黑激素是一種可以引起哈欠的天然的荷爾蒙。另外的好處:研究表明,諸如湯和茶之類的熱液體還可以幫助你緩解傷風(fēng)感冒癥狀,當(dāng)你感覺身體不適時,可以更好地幫助睡眠。
