The Link Between Cherries And Insomnia

Thursday, September 10th, 2009 by

The various medical studies about the properties of cherries have shown significant proof that cherries could be one key to curing insomnia. Usually reserved as a pie filling or the topper for an ice cream sundae, cherries offer so much more for insomnia sufferers. Research has proven a very beneficial link between cherries and insomnia. In particular, a certain hormone in cherries, called melatonin, is the critical link for treating insomnia.

What is Melatonin?

Melatonin is a hormone that makes you feel tired. Melatonin is naturally made in the body by the pineal gland. It is produced by the body during sleep and around the night hours to induce sleep. The body produces less of it as we age, though, which is thought to be directly related to age related insomnia.

Melatonin is a natural way to fight insomnia because it does not have side effects and is all natural and safe. Yet, when the body does not produce enough melatonin a person may start to exhibit symptoms of insomnia. That is where the link between cherries and insomnia come in.

Cherries and Insomnia

When a person’s body is not producing enough melatonin, they may start to experience insomnia. Not knowing the cause, some people typically reach for medications and other sleep aids to get rid of the insomnia. Sleep aids can cause side effects and many medications have been known to cause dependency, which can be dangerous.

Cherries are packed with melatonin. The high concentration of melatonin in cherries makes them very potent against insomnia. In particular, it is the skin of the cherries that contains the most benefit. Consequently, eating cherries is a natural way to boost melatonin in the body and is a natural way to get relief from insomnia. Instead of using pills, a person can simply eat a few cherries and reap the same benefits without the risks.

The Cherries and Insomnia Cure

Specifically, the best way to use cherries to fight insomnia is to eat them right before going to sleep. Though there is no definitive evidence to suggest the proper amount of cherries to eat, researchers believe that a handful of cherries before bedtime should be adequate to gain the benefits of the melatonin.

Though cherries as a cure for insomnia may have never crossed your mind, the research has shown that the high levels of melatonin in cherries is more than enough to help people suffering from insomnia. So, the next time you have a bit of trouble sleeping, give cherries a try.

    I'm exactly where you are at the moment. I'm thinking about not making any sort of announcement, but I'll be honest about it if anyone asks. You don't need to tell them, as long as you're comfortable with it.

    Good luck. =)
