  I normally drink tea before bed, but sometimes have hot chocolate, and I don’t think it’s ever given me nightmares!

  Same for me, it’s never given me nightmares! Hot chocolate is pretty much just coco powder and sugar, and I don’t think they would affect you much… People normally say that cheese gives you nightmares if you eat it before bed (which I don’t think is true either!), but I’ve never heard of hot chocolate doing it! Some things definitely do give you strange dreams though, I once had to take medicine to protect against malaria, and strange dreams is listed as a side effect on the instructions – it happened too, I had some weird dreams!

  I’ve never heard this before! I don’t drink much hot chocolate though, it’s mainly tea for me…
