While late-night snacking is not recommended, we do not suggest going to bed hungry. Going to bed on an empty stomach can actually make it harder for you to go to sleep, so if you’re unable to squeeze in a meal at least three hours before bedtime, you’re better off to satisfy nighttime hunger pangs with light, healthy snacks, and refuel with a big breakfast in the morning. Try nuts, fruits, low-carb veggies, bananas, even protein shakes, to tide you over when you’re hungry before bed since these can fill you up without ruining your sleep.
