Something to think about...
Do you feel hungrier when you don't get enough sleep? Do you crave unhealthy foods when this happens?
Does the medicine you take help or harm your sleep? Talk about this with your doctor or pharmacist.
Do you eat healthy foods, or lots of fatty foods or simple carbohydrates? Eat healthy according to
Canada's Food Guide
. To learn more, think about going to a nutrition class (e.g.,
Alberta Healthy Living Programs
,
Best Choices and Better Health
) or seeing a dietitian.
