Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cereal with milk is a good option for a bedtime snack as it is easy to digest and provides carbohydrates that can promote sleep. It is also a better option compared to hot chocolate, tea and crackers, and chips and salsa as these foods may contain caffeine or high levels of sugar and sodium that can disrupt sleep and/or exacerbate underlying health conditions.
