Number 7 is the one most people miss. It works best on top of the others, so don't skip ahead.
Here’s what helps me
-
1
Close the kitchen at 7pm
Late eating can keep your stomach busy all night.
How to: Finish dinner by 7 and brush your teeth right after.
-
2
Take a short walk after dinner
It helps digestion and winds you down.
How to: 10 minutes, slow and easy.
-
3
Dim the lights
Bright light tells your body it is still daytime.
How to: Switch to lamps an hour before bed.
-
4
Sip a calming tea
A warm cup is my signal that the day is over.
How to: Chamomile or peppermint, about an hour before bed.
-
5
Put the phone away
Scrolling keeps your mind racing.
How to: Charge it outside the bedroom.
-
6
Same bedtime every night
Your body loves a rhythm.
How to: Pick a time and keep it, weekends too.

The one most people miss
A calm stomach at night helps me sleep, and what keeps my stomach calm is one little capsule I take every morning.
Here’s why: lots of probiotics die in stomach acid before they ever reach the gut. Mine comes in a delayed release capsule made to get through the stomach, with 10 strains and a prebiotic to feed them.

Quick questions
How long until I feel a difference?
For me, my stomach felt calmer over the first week or two, and by a month it was just my normal. Everyone is different, so give it a full 30 days.
Is it hard to take?
No. One capsule a day, with or without food. No powder to mix and no taste. I take mine with my morning water.
Is it worth the money?
I thought it would be pricey, but it’s usually $24.97, goes on sale a lot, and it’s $17.49 right now. That’s about 58 cents a day, less than a cup of coffee.
Can I take it with the rest of my routine?
Yes, I take it alongside everything on this page. Simple is the point: one capsule, then I get on with my day. If you take medication, read the label and ask before you start.
