I have always had great sleep, so for me it's easy to notice when my sleep is affected since it's so rare.
Top 3:
- weight. The fatter i get, the worse i sleep. And it's a vicious circle.
- rafined sugar. Too much of it will make me restless, including the sweating you mentioned, but also accelerated cardio respiratory rythm.
- things agressive on the intestine such as too much milk (i'm NOT lactose intolerant)
Screens, late intense lights and coffee seldom affect my sleep, although the later is starting to now that i'm getting older.
- iamben 8y agoI think no refined sugar will be my starting point if and when I ever reintroduce carbs. I've always exercised pretty consistently, I didn't have much weight to lose when I started the diet, and I still eat a load of cheese - so I think it's probably my best guess as a starting point. Coffee is a funny one - I've never been able to make a direct correlation between that and sleep (it doesn't seem to have too much effect), but when I cut coffee down to (for the most part) a single cup in the morning, I now notice that a second cup will give me jittery legs.
- Cthulhu_ 8y agoI'd argue cutting refined sugar is good for everyone, and probably the easiest place to start when you're trying to lose weight / live more healthily. Replace sugary coke with a sugar free version, or put less sugar in coffee (that's how I started); the cravings, if you have them, will gradually diminish. I believe cheese fits in a keto diet as well. If you want to adjust that a bit, go for hard / old cheese instead of soft ones. Also go for real cheese, none of that "sandwich slices" stuff in unrefrigerated plastic packaging.
