to sleep, they won’t help you to fall asleep any faster. That said, if you are someone who doesn't struggle to fall asleep but has problemsOften an imbalance between two adrenal hormones: cortisol and adrenaline can cause wakefulness. While cortisol regulates blood sugar, it’s also responsive to prolonged stress. During sleep, we are fasting, and as a result, our blood sugar levels drop.
However, the problem arises when we are under stress - cortisol levels are disregulated, turning what should be a steady slow rise into a blunt, flat cortisol level. This is when adrenaline rushes in to save us. In the absence of cortisol, adrenaline arrives with a sudden shock, stimulating our nervous system into overdrive. So when you wake up between 2-4am, you can’t get back to sleep because your internal alarm system is flashing a red alert.
How do we fix this? Eat foods that are high in protein and fat later on in the evening, such as almonds alongside a turkey salad, and then eat first thing in the morning. Over time, your body will adapt, especially if you are managing your daytime stress in conjunction with your diet.
