Eat meat, sleep better.
I have found on zerocarb much more than low carb is sleep
I fall asleep hard and quickly. I wake 7 hours later fully awake immediately. Dreams happen, last night I had two different ones that I recalled when I woke. But as soon as I was awake I could immediately be up and doing stuff.
Alcohol messes with this in all dimensions - slower falling asleep, fuzzier wake up. It’s so much better when sober. Sometimes I simply can’t fall asleep because I’m too drunk.
