5. Berberine Tea
Berberine is a plant compound often discussed for its role in glucose metabolism. If available in tea form, it may be a gentle evening option—but it’s best used cautiously and not combined with medications unless approved by a healthcare professional.
6. Sugar-Free Electrolyte Drinks
Electrolytes like magnesium and potassium play important roles in blood sugar balance, muscle relaxation, and sleep quality. Magnesium in particular may help calm the nervous system and reduce nighttime stress responses. Always choose versions without added sugar.
7. Warm Water with a Pinch of Salt
Though it may sound surprising, a small amount of salt in water can help maintain hydration and electrolyte balance overnight. Proper hydration may reduce cortisol spikes and help prevent blood sugar from becoming overly concentrated.
Final Thoughts
Small changes to your nighttime routine can make a noticeable difference in how you sleep and how your body manages blood sugar overnight. Trying one—or a few—of these drinks may help you wake up feeling more rested and balanced.
As always, if you have diabetes, are on medication, or have underlying health conditions, it’s best to check with a healthcare provider before making changes to your routine.
Sometimes, better sleep really does start with what’s in your glass.
