There isn’t one magic bedtime drink that reliably does both.
🌙 Nighttime bathroom trips (nocturia)
Common causes:
-
Drinking a lot of fluids late
-
Caffeine or alcohol
-
High blood sugar
-
Enlarged prostate (in men)
-
Sleep apnea
-
Certain medications
No drink can “cure” this overnight. In fact, drinking more before bed can make it worse.
🩸 Blood sugar at night
To keep blood sugar stable overnight, what actually helps:
-
✔️ Eat balanced meals (protein + fiber + healthy fat)
-
✔️ Avoid large carb-heavy meals late at night
-
✔️ Finish eating 2–3 hours before bed
-
✔️ Maintain healthy weight (you’ve already lost 10 kg 👏 — that helps a lot)
🥛 If you want a safe bedtime option
If you’re not diabetic and just want something gentle:
-
Small serving of plain Greek yogurt with cinnamon
-
A few nuts
-
Herbal tea (not large amounts)
But if you’re waking up frequently to urinate, especially with:
-
Increased thirst
-
Fatigue
-
Blurry vision
You should get fasting glucose and HbA1c checked. Frequent night urination can be an early sign of blood sugar issues.
Since you’ve cut sugar for a year (which is impressive), are you having nighttime bathroom trips now, or just asking about the claim?
