If the sheep count does not work, the Americans may want to hit the fruit driveway the next time they are at the grocery store.

Some fruits filled with hormones and natural minerals can help people fall asleep. The certified and licensed dietitian nutritionist Kendall Mackintosh told Fox News that there are fruits that are “rich in melatonin and antioxidants that help regulate circadian rhythms and repair cells during the night”.

Mackintosh, who is also a member of the Global Wellness Forum Council, says that she has a broader opinion on the USDA guidelines, adding that she thought she should be updated.

“Nutrition is not a question of calories – it is a question of how foods communicate with our bodily systems,” said Mackintosh.

“This time of year, while we spend in the fall with shorter days and less natural light, supporting melatonin naturally becomes even more important for sleep, mood and metabolism,” she added.

Acidulated cherries can help induce sleep by increasing the amount of melatonin, according to the Cleveland Clinic (CC). Melatonin is a natural hormone produced in the body by the pineal gland of the brain, which partially controls the sleeping cycle of sleep.

Cherries also have tryptophan, which is an amino acid used in the production of serotonin and melatonin, according to the CC.

The registered dietitian, Anthony Dimarino, told CC that the grapes are good to help to help sleep.
