Are you having sleep issues at all? Do you wonder why you can't sleep? If you don't sleep well or you wake up in the middle of the night it might be due to Adrenal fatigue and stress which contributes to cortisol and blood sugar issues. Dr Sten Ekberg explains cortisol, blood sugar and adrenal stress and how it can prevent you from sleeping.

The most common thing that will interfere with sleep is adrenal dysfunction so the job of the adrenals is to maintain blood sugar and the adrenals maintained make a hormone called cortisol that maintains your blood sugar through the night so at night it should be the lowest so that your melatonin can kick in and put you to sleep then the cortisol rises throughout the night to maintain your blood sugar because the longer it's been since you eaten the more cortisol you need to maintain that blood sugar so then the blood sugar should be that the cortisol should be the highest in the morning both to maintain blood sugar but also to wake you up because then it there's a spike of cortisol in the morning to turn off your melatonin but then you get up and you have something to eat so now you get blood sugar from the from the food so your cortisol can drop down and now your cortisol wants to rest throughout the day because it's going to work the next night again but the cortisone doesn't get to rest because we have such stressful lives and we don't eat properly and we eat starchy food and we have sugar spikes and sugar dips that causes reactive hypoglycemia and now your cortisol has to kick in again and then you add all the emotional stress and the hustle and bustle that we have in our daily lives so that means that the adrenals and the cortisol is just going going going and then when they're sort of worn out now they can't maintain your blood sugar through the night and now you get interrupted sleep patterns so most sleep problems have to do with with adrenal stress.

If you feel this is your issue, try to eat more protein and vegetables and cut back on your starches. Have some protein before going to bed too. If you wake up in the middle of the night try eating about 5 nuts.
