Can I drink apple cider before going to bed at night

Apple cider can generally be consumed before bedtime at night, but it needs to be adjusted according to personal constitution and drinking habits. Apple cider contains natural fructose and trace nutrients, and moderate consumption can help replenish water and promote digestion. People with weak gastrointestinal function or frequent nocturia are recommended to control their consumption. Apple cider is made by boiling fresh apples and is rich in pectin and potassium, which can help maintain electrolyte balance. Warm drinking can soothe the nerves and improve some people's difficulty falling asleep. Polyphenols in apples have antioxidant properties and can still exert mild physiological regulatory effects even when metabolism is slow at night. Peeling during production can reduce the risk of pesticide residues, and adding cinnamon powder can enhance the warming effect. Some people may experience increased gastric acid secretion or increased frequency of waking up at night after drinking [SEP]. Diabetes patients should pay attention to the intake of natural sugar to avoid affecting the stability of blood sugar at night. The recommended drinking time is one hour before bedtime, with a single consumption limit of no more than 200 milliliters. Refrigerated apple cider overnight may breed bacteria and is not recommended for direct consumption.

It is recommended to choose apples with moderate maturity to avoid excessive tannic acid in immature fruits that can irritate the gastrointestinal tract. It can be boiled with a small amount of ginger slices to enhance the cooling effect, but additional sugars such as honey should not be added. Long term drinkers should observe their dental health and regularly clean their mouth. People with chronic kidney disease or gastroesophageal reflux disease should consult a professional physician before drinking.
