Struggling to sleep at night? Well, worry not; this fruit is here to rescue you.

According to the Sleep Charity, eating a banana right before bed can help people get quality sleep.

Experts have found that bananas help with falling asleep faster, thanks to high levels of magnesium and potassium, both of which work to relax muscles and calm the brain.

The study also highlighted other fruits that offer high levels of sleep-inducing melatonin, such as grapes, cherries, and strawberries.

Bananas may be low in protein and fat, yet they are abundant in carbohydrates, water, fibre, and antioxidants. According to the US Department of Agriculture’s FoodData Central, a medium banana provides 1 gram of protein, 29g of carbs, 3g of fiber, and 112 calories.
