That 3pm slump isn't because you're lazy or getting old. It's a combination of your circadian rhythm, your lunch choices, and how you've been using caffeine all morning.

Why do I crash every afternoon around 3pm?

Your body has a natural energy dip between 2pm and 4pm—it's hardwired into your circadian rhythm. But what makes it worse is the insulin spike from a carb-heavy lunch, combined with adenosine buildup from morning coffee. When all three hit at once, you feel like someone pulled the plug.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why your circadian rhythm naturally dips in the early afternoon (even after great sleep)
• How your lunch triggers an insulin response that makes you drowsy
• Why your morning coffee is setting you up for a brutal afternoon crash
• Two simple changes to reduce the 3pm wall without overhauling your routine

This isn't about willpower. It's about working with your biology instead of fighting it.
