2. Golden Milk with Cinnamon
- Heat a cup of milk (dairy or plant-based).

- Sweeten with honey.
- This comforting drink is known to improve digestion and promote restful sleep.
3. Cinnamon and Honey Mix

Precautions
While cinnamon is safe in moderate amounts, consuming it in very high doses may cause side effects due to coumarin (found in cassia cinnamon). To stay safe:
- Limit to ½–1 teaspoon daily.
- Use Ceylon cinnamon (“true cinnamon”) when possible — it has lower coumarin levels.
- If you have medical conditions (like diabetes or liver issues), consult your doctor before daily use.
Final Thoughts
Cinnamon is more than a kitchen spice — it’s a natural remedy that supports restful sleep and soothes the digestive system. By adding a simple cup of cinnamon tea or golden milk to your evening routine, you may finally enjoy 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep while saying goodbye to bloating discomfort.
