cheese or beer

[Focus Owner]

what is best to sleep with?

 

[Ffoxy]

Cheese will promote dreams / nightmares depending on what's in your subconcious mind.

Beer (quite a bit) will send you off into a poor quality sleep.

Best thing to sleep with is an energetic woman TBH Daz...

beer has always give me a better nights sleep ie vivid dreams

 

[dave]

cheese because of its high levels of the serotonin-producing amino acid tryptophan, is far more likely to induce sleep and reduce stress.

 

[dronenrs]

cheese is good but beer is more worthwhile

 

[jip0]

id say cheese

beer leave a horrible taste in my mouth when i wake up

and cheese is cheaper and not as bad for you

 

[dave]

cheese makes you fat though

 

[ben]

So does beer.....

I thought cheese was bad before bed though...

 

[jip0]

id hedge a bet that beer is worse to sleep on, at least with cheese you get your calcium

i think the whole cheese before bed is bad is just a myth

they mentioned it on QI and it doesn't specifically cause bad dreams just vivid dreams in general

 

[dronenrs]

not quite. i think it was said earlier it does promote dreaming.. it all depends what you were thinking though when you went to bed.. whether you get bad or good dreams

Gotta say i would choose cheese because too much beer can give you a hangover the morning after but then again its more fun going to the pub for a few pints that staying in and eating a lump of cheese. so actually, beer.

certain food eaten an hour or two before bed helps you sleep apparently coz it contains something, but i cant remember what

Beer - personally because I can drink more beer in comparison to eating cheese. :yum:
