Almond Butter:
Helps regulate blood sugar during a long flight. Almond butter ensures your blood sugar levels don’t get too low.
Bananas:
Bananas contain serotonin (which helps you sleep) and magnesium (which helps relax your muscles).
Chamomile Tea + Honey:
Chamomile tea has long been known to help you both relax and stay calm the honey gives the tea a double whammy effect of controlling blood sugar levels.
Cherries:
As well as tasting delicious cherries contain melatonin which helps with sleep cycle regulation (especially helpful with Jet-lag) allowing you to drift peacefully off.
Nuts:
Particularly walnuts and almonds, both of which contain vitamin B which helps with the production on melatonin (see above).
Oatmeal:
Eat this one a few hours before you go to sleep. Oatmeal will fill you up during sleep so you won’t wake up hungry half way through your journey.
Oranges:
Well known to help with stress resilience. We all know how stressful that crying baby can be!
Seeds:
Contain tryptophan which is involved in the synthesis of vitamin B and is a well-known aid for insomnia.
Warm Milk:
Can help stabilize blood sugar levels but don’t blame us for the odd looks you get when asking the barista to warm up your milk only cup.
