Ever felt totally fine one minute… then suddenly tired, overwhelmed, or snappy, for no reason?
Here’s the science-backed truth:
Those emotional shifts might not be “all in your head”, they could be in your blood sugar.
When your blood sugar spikes (think: granola bar, smoothie, fruit alone), your body responds with a rush of energy. But then comes the crash…
And that crash can trigger:
→Anxiety
→ Brain fog
→ Intense cravings
→ Irritability or mood swings
It’s not only what you eat, it’s about how your body handles it. Some people are more sensitive to blood sugar dips and need more support in keeping things stable.
What can you do about it?
Here are 3 action steps you can take this week:
- Pair carbs with protein & fat.
→ Example: Swap a granola bar for Greek yogurt + berries + chia seeds. - Don’t skip meals.
→ Going too long without food makes blood sugar dips worse, and your nervous system feels it. - Know your genes.
→ Your DNA can affect how you process carbs, regulate mood, and handle stress. Knowing this helps you build a personalized plan that actually works.
