Rest Well: Evening Food & Rhythms for Deeper Sleep

No food is a sleeping pill, but when you eat, what you drink and how you wind down can quietly support better rest. Rest Well is a practical, 27-page guide to evening food and daily rhythms for deeper sleep, written by Celebrity Nutritionist Birgit Waites, M.S. (M.S. in Natural Medicine; Board Certified Holistic Health Practitioner, AADP).

The guide covers:

• how sleep works
• why good nights start with morning light
• how to find your personal caffeine cut-off (with a simple bedtime table and a "where caffeine hides" chart)
• what alcohol really does to the second half of the night
• how to time and build a sleep-friendly evening plate

An honest "sleepy food" scorecard covers kiwi, tart cherry, tryptophan, milk and chamomile. It tells you exactly how small some of those studies are. A simple wind-down routine pulls it all together.

Then it makes it easy: a 7-day sample meal plan, a 60-minute prep plan, a grocery list and 10 simple recipes, including a Tart Cherry Evening Spritzer and Warm Cinnamon Vanilla Milk. A printable sleep tracker gives you a ready-made sleep diary for your next appointment.

This guide supports, and never replaces, the care you get from your healthcare provider.
