Food and Sleepwalking?

I have just returned from an overseas flight and while reading on the airplane I found an interesting article about sleepwalking. I have never personally had any difficulties sleeping at night but I have heard a lot of stories about people doing crazy things sleepwalking in both their homes and even outside.

The article were mostly about the research that had been done for many decades and what the scientists had found out about what causes some people to sleepwalk. Some of the most recent research had shown that there might be a correlation between the health and food eaten by the sleepwalkers. Some foods were meant to trigger walking in your sleep more than others. However the scientist had had a hard time proving the theory in reality since it seemed that the health conditions of the people tested had something to do with it as well.
