Can a spoonful of peanut butter help you sleep? US physician Dr Kunal Sood explains trick to staying asleep all night

US physician Dr Kunal Sood recommends a spoonful of peanut butter two hours before bed to help with sleep.

Peanut butter contains tryptophan, which is a precursor to serotonin and has a calming effect on the brain.

Healthy fats in peanut butter stabilize blood sugar and prevent midnight awakenings by slowing carbohydrate absorption.

Peanut butter also contains magnesium, which can relax you and improve sleep quality.
