A common vitamin before bed will help you remember your dreams
NEVER remember your dreams? There’s a vitamin for that, and it could even help you control them.
Adelaide University research has found that taking vitamin B6 could help people recall their dreams.
Vitamin B6 occurs naturally in whole grain cereals, legumes, fruits such as banana and avocado, and vegetables including spinach and potato.
It’s also found in milk, cheese, eggs, red meat, liver and fish.
For the study, 100 participants from around Australia took high-dose vitamin B6 supplements before going to bed for five consecutive days.
Research author Dr Denholm Aspy said results showed taking B6 improved people’s ability to recall dreams.
“Vitamin B6 did not affect the vividness, bizarreness or colour of their dreams, and did not affect other aspects of their sleep patterns,’’ he said.
“This is the first time that such a study into the effects of vitamin B6 and other B vitamins on dreams has been carried out on a large and diverse group of people.”
The randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study had participants taking 240mg of vitamin B6 immediately before bed.
Prior to taking the supplements, many of the participants rarely remembered their dreams, but reported improvements by the end of the study.
Dr Aspy said the findings may help people have “lucid” dreams, a type of dream where the sleeping person knows they are dreaming and is able to control what happens.
“The average person spends around six years of their lives dreaming,” he said.
“If we are able to become lucid and control our dreams, we can then use our dreaming time more productively. It may be possible to use lucid dreaming for overcoming nightmares, treating phobias, creative problem solving, refining motor skills and even helping with rehabilitation from physical trauma.
“In order to have lucid dreams it is very important to first be able to recall dreams on a regular basis. This study suggests that vitamin B6 may be one way to help people have lucid dreams.
“Further research is needed to investigate whether the effects of vitamin B6 vary according to how much is obtained from the diet. If vitamin B6 is only effective for people with low dietary intake, its effects on dreaming may diminish with prolonged (use).”
