      What kinds of food to eat before bed?

      I've heard that eating spicy foods before bed is really uncomfortable, but that's the point because the discomfort opens a window to make the connection that you ate food before bed for the purpose of becoming lucid. Does this actually work? if not, what does?

      try a banana or two. And some water with lemon. That is what works good for me. But if you want to take it one level higher, eat some shrimps as well.

      Me (My dream guide, rather) recommends drinking water, plain and simple. Putting lemon in it sounds like a good idea.

      The problem with this is that 30 minutes later, you'll have to get out of bed. Unless it's a WILD, and that's what you're going for.

      Just go to bed.

      Eating before bed will help only to make you fat; it will not help you LD. Also, eating food that makes you uncomfortable only makes you think about being uncomfortable, and not about your upcoming dream.

      It's best to have as little distraction as possible when doing WILD, so creating a distraction by eating food at bedtime that invites indigestion is not, I think, the best plan.
