Scientists seem to have found an easy way to help us remember our dreams in the morning. As per a study, taking Vitamin B6 supplements before going to sleep can help you achieve this easily. As per the new research carried out by the University of Adelaide in Australia, taking vitamin B6 improves the person's ability to recall the dream as compared to placebo, a common substance for physiological effects. 100 participants from around Australia volunteered in the study where they were asked to take the supplement for five consecutive days. It was a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in which the participants took 240 mg of vitamin B6 immediately before bed.
The co-researcher of the study, Dr Aspy said that intake of the vitamin did not affect the participant's vividness and bizarreness of their dream or other aspects of their sleep patterns. Before taking the supplement the participants rarely remembered their dream but later they reported an improvement in it. However, it is still unclear how this nutrient helps in recalling your dream and more research is being carried out to know the mystery behind this.
