If you've ever woken up after a short night of sleep and felt like you could eat everything in sight, you're not imagining it. Your body is running a completely different metabolic program. In this episode, we explore how even mild "sleep debt" can lower insulin sensitivity, spike cortisol, and crank up the hormones that drive cravings for quick-hit carbs and sugar.

We'll break down why underslept brains make more impulsive food decisions, how this sets off the perfect storm for blood sugar swings, and why midlife hormone changes can make the impact even worse. You'll also learn realistic ways to recover from a bad night so you can protect your metabolism, your energy, and your appetite control.

Whether you're keto, low carb, or simply trying to keep your blood sugar steady, this is the missing link you didn't know was holding you back.
