Ordinary Grapes May Replace Sleeping Pills

The skin of dark grapes contains the natural hormone melatonin, which promotes deep sleep. Medical studies have shown that eating one bunch of grapes can increase melatonin levels in the blood by 50–100%.

Eating 100–150 grams of grapes a few hours before bedtime may help a person fall asleep faster and reduce nighttime awakenings. In addition, the potassium and magnesium in grapes relax the muscles and nervous system.
