Natural-sleep-promoting recipe using boiled banana water

Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana (organic if possible, with peel on)
  • 2 cups water
  • A dash of cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash the banana thoroughly, especially if it’s not organic.
  2. Cut off both ends of the banana, but leave the peel on.
  3. Bring the 2 cups of water to a boil in a small pot.
  4. Place the whole banana (with peel) into the boiling water.
  5. Let it boil for about 10 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat and strain the liquid into a mug.
  7. Add a dash of cinnamon and honey if you like.
  8. Drink this banana tea about 30–60 minutes before bedtime.

💤 Why It Works:

Bananas are rich in magnesium and potassium, which help relax muscles and nerves. The peel contains even more of these calming minerals. Drinking this banana-infused tea can promote natural sleep and reduce nighttime restlessness.

Let me know if you’d like a version without the peel or suggestions to customize it!
