As someone older, I am trying to eat better and be more well rested. This book explained why these are so important to your health and living longer, better lives. Highly recommend.

Love this! Lots of helpful tips and a few intriguing recipes. I've started to implement and I do think I may be noticing a difference... Not so much in falling asleep, but I do feel more rested when I wake up.

This book seems very informative and the recipes sound interesting. I wish we were given the entire book to view as the excerpt isn't nearly enough to give a full review. It does look very promising though.

Eat Better, Sleep Better is like the perfect recipe for fixing two of life’s biggest struggles: restless nights and what to cook for dinner! Dr. Marie-Pierre St-Onge and Kat Craddock team up to create a guide that’s part science, part cookbook, and all about helping you feel amazing—day and night.

This book takes the mystery out of how food can affect your sleep and presents it in a way that’s super approachable. The recipes are practical and mouthwatering, like Overnight Oats with Ginger Compote or Mushroom "Carbonara" (yes, please!). And with a 28-day meal plan, they’ve basically done all the planning for you—perfect for anyone like me who needs a little nudge in the right direction.

What I love most? These aren’t complicated recipes; they’re simple, tasty, and packed with ingredients that help your body do what it needs to snooze soundly. From easy breakfasts to stress-free dinners and even guilt-free desserts, this book proves that eating for better sleep doesn’t mean sacrificing flavor.

If you’re tired of being tired, this book is a game-changer. After flipping through the recipes, I’m already excited to test out the Chamomile-Ginger Panna Cotta and see if my dreams get sweeter too!

Like other arc reviewers mentioned, this wasn't the full book. I really wanted to see the recipes but the preview was only 36 pages.

From the excerpt of the book that I received, it certainly seems interesting. I'd like to read it in its entirety before giving a final review.
I received a complimentary copy of the book from the publisher via NetGalley. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Eat Better, Sleep Better is a cookbook focused on recipes to combine sleep-supporting ingredients into everyday cooking to help you sleep and eat better. The cookbook begins with an in-depth introduction of how food selection can affect sleep quality and vice versa. The introduction itself was interesting and provides a decent amount of context for the remaining contents of this cookbook. However, I was extremely disappointed because this ARC is only a sample of the first 36 pages and I couldn’t view the recipes or the meal plan.

Thank you Simon Element | S&S/Simon Element publishing for providing me an ARC via NetGalley in exchange for my review.

I was disappointed that none of the recipes were included in the copy I received, I would have loved to try them out. However, the intro was okay. I found the research interesting.

I read a copy of this book on NetGalley. It was a good book but none of the recipes could be viewed. The book just ended where the recipes should be. I contacted NetGalley and they contacted the publisher to see if they could fix it. I tried to download the book again but it still would not show the recipes. Bummer as I was looking forward to viewing the recipes. Regardless the book was interesting.

I couldn’t read this book. The Kindle file is only part of the book (chapter 1) and the NetGalley app is asking for a my NetGalley login, but it’s not working. I’ve never had issues like this on NetGalley. I’m pretty bummed, from the teasers in the book, the recipes looked good!

I was disappointed with the ARC that was given for this book. It is only 35 pages and offers no recipes to test out. It is only the introduction and leading chapters before recipes come in that go into detail about sleep patterns and food. I cannot accurately review a cookbook that I haven't even gotten to try recipes from. This was disappointing and I'm not sure I will even pick the book up from this experience alone.

I received an ARC sample of this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

It's hard to get a good read on this book because only a sample was provided. But the information that was there seemed like it had good information in it.

I think this was maybe just an excerpt...a bit of science behind eating combinations of foods. Unfortunately no recipes, so it's a bit difficult to evaluate this book. I guess it's intended to just give you a taste (no pun intended!).

Eat Better, Sleep Better is a cookbook focused on recipes to help you eat and sleep better. The cookbook begins with an introduction and an in-depth explanation of how food can solve sleep problems. However, this ARC is only a sample of the first 35 pages, therefore, I cannot comment on the 28-day meal plan or the actual recipes.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of Eat Better, Sleep Better.

I was eager to read this and excited my request was approved but imagine my disappointed when I discovered the ARC is just a preview, about 20 pages.

The brief introduction includes the bio and credentials of the authors and outlines how eating healthfully influences our sleep and the kinds of sleep we need to feel rested and at our cognitive best.

The ARC ends right before the recipes begin.
