The Science
The high sugar content (+30% DV) may cause blood sugar spikes that can disrupt sleep, especially if consumed close to bedtime. However, the magnesium (+5% DV) and potassium (+6% DV) can support muscle relaxation and nerve function, which may aid sleep quality. The carbohydrate content (+8% DV) could promote serotonin production if eaten in moderation, but the sugar outweighs this benefit for most people.
Recommendation
If consumed, eat a small portion earlier in the day rather than near bedtime to minimize blood sugar disruption.
