About Eat Better, Sleep Better
Exploring the connection between sleep and nutrition for health.
What you eat directly impacts how you sleep. Science-based and easy to understand, Eat Better, Sleep Better includes 75 recipes that incorporate sleep-supporting ingredients that work with the body’s rhythms and hormones to unlock quality rest—and the health benefits that come with it.
More than half of all Americans have difficulty falling or staying asleep. Drawing on the science that has made her the go-to expert on the connection between food and sleep, Dr. Marie-Pierre St-Onge pairs her comprehensive strategies for getting a good night’s sleep with Kat Craddock’s 75 recipes. Developed with ingredients that trigger the body’s dietary melatonin and serotonin, these recipes align with a Mediterranean diet and trigger a healthy circadian cycle, so you feel energetic during the day and ready for sleep at night. Eat Better, Sleep Better is for anyone who wants food to be the medicine for getting quality sleep. Here, too, is a 28-day meal plan that takes the guess work out of what to eat when so you can start eating—and sleeping—better than ever.
