Hi Everyone,

i have an annoying problem, I wake up almost everyday at 3 am very hungry but still want to continue to sleep, i wonder what would be the best meal to eat in such case? i am supposed to sleep until 7-8 am after this.

Regards,

I have a protein shake if its really bugging me

protein shake is good and maybe some seeds to stop the hunger...

Drink a glass of ice cold water and go back to sleep. It`s a very bad time to be eating anything,esp carbs.

Have a shake. It's actually a beneficial situation; you're body is starving for protein at this point I'm sure.

a few bites of cottage cheese might help..

**mg1228** · 12-14-2009, 05:22 PM

**elpropiotorvic** · 12-14-2009, 05:38 PM

Yes it's starving for protein but do u wake up out of hunger or do u wake up for another reason and then realize ur hungry... I'm sure ur body craves some sleep

In the book,Your Body's Many Cries for Water, it talks about dehydration. It says that many people are so dehydrated that eventually the body shuts down the thirst mechanism and switches on the sense that your hungry.

I think that this has to do with people who drink things like soda, that actually dehydrate you but seem to quench your thirst.

Caffeine,alcohol,soda,juice. I think an over consumption of diuretic herbs can do the same. i remember i drank a ginkgo biloba tea mixture for a few days. I always felt incredible thirsty few hours after.
