On this list, you will be able to see exactly how these everyday foods give your body the much-needed energy, as well as how they put you to sleep after a hard day, reports B92.

Milk: Rich in calcium and tryptophan (an amino acid), milk can help increase the production of the sleep hormone melatonin. A glass of warm milk before bed can help you relax and improve your chances of falling asleep quickly.

Almond: These nuts are an excellent source of magnesium, which plays a key role in muscle relaxation and sleep regulation. Eating a few almonds a day can help promote a more restful night's sleep.

Chamomile tea: Known for its calming properties, chamomile tea can reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. It contains antioxidant properties that can have a sedative effect on the brain to help you relax and fall asleep more easily.

Kiwi: This nutrient-packed little fruit is rich in antioxidants and serotonin, which can improve sleep quality. Not only that, kiwifruit is good for people suffering from constipation, high blood pressure and asthma.

Speech: There is another type of nut on the list of dietitians, walnuts. They are rich in melatonin, which directly affects the sleep cycle. Eating a "handful" of walnuts before bed can support your body's natural sleep rhythm.

Bananas: Bananas are rich in potassium and magnesium, which relax muscles and nerves. They also contain tryptophan, which can help produce serotonin and melatonin, promoting deep, re-energizing sleep.
