Adherence to proper nutrition helps not only to normalize the metabolism in the body, but also significantly improve your sleep. To such a conclusion came the scientists from the Medical School at the University of Pennsylvania.
According to the University, people who do not follow their diet and consume large amounts of calories, sleep only about 5-6 hours a day. Most often this leads to sleep disturbance or insomnia.

For smokers
Of course, the most correct advice is to quit smoking as quickly as possible. Without this, any other attempts to improve your body, including with the help of proper nutrition, will be unproductive.
