Tea
Tea is another drink that may be the main cause of your insomnia. Most teas contain a lot of stimulants. It does not matter which type of tea you give your preference to – the problem is that most of them won’t let you sleep at night. Fortunately, there is a good way to replace regular tea with other drinks, such as herbal teas. Try peppermint, chamomile or wild thyme tea. You are sure to find your favorite flavor. Another option is to drink fruit teas that do not contain caffeine. If the above mentioned substitutes do not satisfy you, drink your usual tea in the evening, but prior to indulging it, soak the teabag in hot water for a few seconds, take it out, dump it, and make another cup using the same bag. Your second cup will contain much less caffeine.

Chocolate
Caffeine can be also found in chocolate. The darker the chocolate, the more caffeine it may contain. Do not eat dark chocolate at night before the bedtime. The same rule applies to other delicious desserts, such as chocolate ice cream. If you are one of those people who are sensitive to caffeine, then the reason why you cannot sleep well at night is probably one of your favorite treats. Milk chocolate can also have a negative influence on your sleep. A serving of milk chocolate contains up to 10 milligrams of caffeine while a serving of dark chocolate has around 32. Chocolate also contains theobromine, another stimulant that increases insomnia and heart rate.
