Symptoms:
Unpleasant dreams while sleeping.

Cause:
In most cases, nightmares can be solved.

Treatment:
• Do not eat 4 hours before bedtime.

• Eat a light supper of fruit and toast. Too much food in the stomach is a major cause of nightmares.

• Food allergies are another prime cause. Search them out and eliminate them (see "Allergies" and "Pulse Test)."

• Hypoglycemia is another significant cause. The low point of low blood sugar level occurs at 4 to 4½ hours after food is eaten, especially sugar foods and drinks (cookies and milk, etc.).

• Include chromium in the diet.

• Avoid caffeine.

• Liquor drinking and hard drugs induce nightmares.

• Sometimes the problem is emotional; a parent that is mean to the child, a terrifying incident that a person has had, etc. Go to God with these problems; only He can bring peace of heart.

• Before bedtime, go outdoors and walk in the cool night air, breathe deep, and relax.

• Some take a whole, warm, bath before bedtime, to relax.

• Avoid enervation of any kind. Do not overwork.
