10 Food for good night’s sleep..十大幫助好眠的食物

Bananas- bananas contain magnesium, a muscle relaxant.

Chamomile tea- its mild sedating effect – it’s the perfect natural antidote for restless minds/bodies.

Warm milk- It’s not a myth. Milk has some tryptophan – an amino acid that has a sedative – like effect – and calcium, which helps the brain use tryptophan. Plus there’s the psychological throw-back to infancy, when a warm bottle meant “relax, everything’s fine.”

Honey- Drizzle a little in your warm milk or herb tea.

Potatoes

Oatmeal

Almonds-A handful of these heart-healthy nuts can be snooze-inducing, as they contain both tryptophan and a nice dose of muscle-relaxing magnesium.

Flaxseeds-When life goes awry and feeling down is keeping you up, try sprinkling 2 tablespoons of these healthy little seeds on your bedtime oatmeal. They’re rich in omega-3 fatty acids, a natural mood lifter.

Whole-wheat bread- A slice of toast with your tea and honey will release insulin, which helps tryptophan get to your brain, where it’s converted to serotonin and quietly murmurs “time to sleep.”

Turkey- It’s the most famous source of tryptophan, credited with all those Thanksgiving naps. But that’s actually modern folklore. Tryptophan works when your stomach’s basically empty, not overstuffed, and when there are some carbs around, not tons of protein. But put a lean slice or two on some whole-wheat bread mid-evening, and you’ve got one of the best sleep inducers in your kitchen.

Symphonic Super Mario music?? 超級瑪莉…與交響樂團合作??!!

This feels like eating fried chicken in a 5 star restaurant; maybe it’s prettier and looks higher quality, but the original greasy recipe is still better.  The only place where the audience claps is when the overhead screen shows the original game. It makes me wonder, what if you lose the game in the middle of the performance ???

感覺起來好像在五星級大飯店吃肉燥飯阿….看起來觀眾好像比較喜歡原味. 只有大螢幕放原來的電動影像.才有人拍手.
