12 ways to live longer sleep

Your body needs time to properly digest whatever it eats for optimal health. So plan to eat at least 2-3 hours before going to bed and no later.

Eating too close to bedtime can also cause gastrointestinal discomfort such as heart burn or GERD. This happens when stomach acid splashes back into the throat. Eating close to bedtime can make symptoms worse as it’s easier for stomach acid to back up on a full stomach.
