I'd read about a banana at night working to help with sleep, and it does work pretty well for me. Which is weird because melatonin pills (and a whole list of prescription sleep aids I've tried) don't do it for me. Sometimes I think our bodies are just more receptive to natural things still in their original packaging. Mine seems to be pretty primitive in that way, anyway.
