Why It Works
By the time you go to bed after your last meal, your body will have consumed half of your liver’s supply of glycogen. And because sleep is energy-driven, the more empty your glycogen stores the harder it will be to sleep.
Honey triggers a small spike in insulin levels, and insulin stimulates the release of tryptophan in the brain. Tryptophan is converted to serotonin, which is then converted to melatonin (sleep hormone).
The combination of honey and salt increases serotonin, a key hormone in happiness and relaxation. Himalayan sea salt contains more than 80 minerals and elements that your body needs for different processes, aiding your body in recovering from the day.
