Maybe for you, but I’d be up all night barfing. I hate bananas.

I find that if I set a routine when bedtime arrives, I can make myself fall asleep fast.
Bananas help prevent the calves from locking up, though.

With decades of insomnia, I’ll definitely give this a try.

The problem is that it is bad for your teeth to go to sleep with all that sticky sugar in your mouth, and brushing your teeth right after such a snack is pretty yucky (Pepsodent and similar taste NASTY after peanut butter/banana).

I often eat a banana as a late snack. When you walk into the kitchen they are easy to grab and the wonderful packaging keeps them fresh if you decide to wait a while.

Wow!   27 grams of carbs in one banana, no thanks.

I love bananas

Sliced up with a teaspoon of raw honey from my back yard hives is sweet ambrosia.

I love bananas but they give me extreme GERD. If I ate one before bed I’d probably choke in my sleep. Peanut butter, though, I might give that a try.

Not for me. A banana is good before exercise, though.

Way back in my Drum Corps days, they fed us half a banana every day, to keep from cramping.

That's probably why I don't particularly like bananas these days.

my mother knew someone who ate a banana before bed, and died. she blamed the banana and we were forbidden to eat them after dinner. she’s probably rolling in her grave at the suggestion to eat before sleeping!

Why do you need a snack before bedtime? Are you so thin that you have no extra energy saved up around your tummy or on your derriere?

Or do you eat, not because you need energy, but because it feels good.

Your body is like a child. Don't let it run your life.

Bananas constipate. Not such a good idea.

Bananas

Bananas are a conundrum when it comes to constipation foods to avoid. It’s a matter of timing: Unripe bananas can cause constipation; ripe bananas can help relieve constipation.

Unripe or under-ripe green bananas cause constipation because they still have a lot of starch, which can be hard for the body to digest.

Bananas also contain dietary fiber (pectin), which draws water from the intestines toward the stool.

If someone is already dehydrated, this can make constipation worse.

Those 3 Irish green Krispy Kreme glazed donuts I had before bed last night didn’t help me sleep AT ALL.

Must’ve been the green food dye.

I work my ass off alone outside all day and have no trouble falling asleep at night. Can’t even imagine spending all that time in an office with a lot of people. It’s the office that keeps a lot of people up at night.
