Are you getting enough sleep? How many hours do you typically sleep each night?
If you think you are not getting enough sleep, take a moment to think about how that may be affecting your day. What do your eating habits look like? Are you making decisions that benefit or hurt you when it comes to food consumption?
Research has revealed that those who are sleep-deprived tend to eat more junk food and overall make poorer decisions when it comes to food. You can read more here. Think about it: if you got adequate sleep every night, how could that ultimately affect what you choose to eat during the day? This could mean a decision you would make between some berries and a piece of cake.

Not Getting Enough Sleep
The fact of the matter is, sleep deprivation begins a vicious cycle. Sleep deprivation causes poor eating choices (which eventually transform into everyday habits) and thus exacerbates the painful symptoms related to Acid Reflux later on when it is time to sleep.
Taking on a holistic perspective, the root cause of the problem can very well be inadequate sleep. Because even if we intend to make healthy eating choices, a lack of sleep can make it all the more difficult to do so. Why make life more difficult than it has to be?
