Are you always sleepy during the day? The problem may be "eating the wrong thing"!
Latest research in 2025 finds:
* Omega-3, Omega-6 fatty acids (common in Mediterranean diet): help reduce daytime sleepiness;
* Tyramine (common in mature or fermented foods): makes people sleepy, especially affects men;
The research team tested 877 blood metabolites in more than 6,000 subjects and found 7 substances related to sleepiness. Two of the hormone-related metabolites can help reduce sleepiness; while the tyramine-related metabolite can make sleep quality worse and make you feel more tired during the day.
[The key is how to eat]
Eat more: foods rich in Omega fatty acids, such as: mackerel, nuts, olive oil...
Eat less: Foods high in tyramine: mature cheese, sausage, bacon, pickles, beer and other fermented or mature foods...
Eating the right food not only affects your weight, but also determines whether you are awake during the day!
