What if the carbs aren’t the problem?
You’ve tried cutting carbs, skipping sugar, and even intermittent fasting…
But you still feel foggy after meals, your energy crashes by mid-afternoon, and the cravings hit hard.
Here’s the truth no one talks about:
Not everyone responds to carbs the same way.
Your DNA influences how your body breaks down, stores, and reacts to carbs and sugar and how well it recovers when blood sugar swings.
Some people tolerate carbs with ease.
Others need more support balancing them with protein, fiber, and fat, or experience bigger spikes and crashes that drive fatigue, mood swings, and inflammation.
Your genes don’t just affect your waistline.
They play a major role in:
- How steady your energy is after meals
- Whether you get “hangry” or foggy between meals
- How well you sleep
- And whether your body stores or burns sugar efficiently
Here’s what I want you to know:
Low-carb doesn’t mean better. The right carbs, paired the right way, can stabilize your blood sugar and support metabolism.
When you understand your body’s unique response, you can stop guessing and start building meals that actually work for you.
No more sugar crashes. No more “why is this still not working?” moments.
