Do you spend your nights surfing the television channels and your days so tired that you can hardly function at work? Join the club. It is estimated that about 30% of adults don’t get enough high quality sleep. Insomnia leads to lack of motivation and poor job performance and even causes high levels of stress for a lot of married couples or people in relationships.

Well, the good news is that you could be having sweet dreams without medication. It could be as simple as changing your diet and getting the right amount of nutrients to send you on your way to dreamland.
One study has found that a low level of copper can be one of the reasons for the poor quality of sleep. Some tests have also found that a low magnesium level can also lead to light sleeping. Just by increasing these two nutrients you could be on your way to a good nights sleep.

Copper occurs naturally in many foods such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, as well as shell fish and beef. Animal organs such as beef or chicken liver also contain copper. These are the best natural ways to get your copper levels up.
Magnesium is essential for human nutrition. Magnesium helps the body in contraction and relaxation of the muscles. The best foods to eat are green leafy vegetables like spinach. Other good foods include beans, peas, nuts, seeds, and whole, unrefined grains.

Be sure to consult your doctor if you have heart or kidney problems before you take Magnesium supplements. Pills can do the trick but a natural diet is going to be better for you. Not only can you feel better but you can start getting that much needed sleep again just by changing your diet.
