Because of its calming nature on the body, a common question is whether ginger will make you sleepy. It increases the circulation and many people report that it gives them more energy. When it is time for sleep though, ginger may help remove toxins that used to lead to sleeplessness, helping you fall asleep.

Many people report that listening to audio books in bed helps them fall asleep. Keep the volume just barely audible, so it’s easier to drift off when you’re ready.
