>Some other foods to avoid:

Alcohol and nicotine!. Do not use alcohol to help you fall asleep!. Although alcohol may initially induce sleep, once it wears off, the sleep tends to be fragmented!. Also, limit nicotine prior to bedtime, as it is a stimulant and will keep you up!.
Heavy meals less than three hours prior to bed!. Meals loaded with calories and fat rev up active digestion and can often leave you feeling uncomfortably full or, even worse, cause heartburn or aggravate a hiatal hernia!.
Fatty or spicy foods
Tomatoes
Potatoes
