Why It Happens
Fatigue before meals is often linked to dips in blood glucose, adrenal fatigue, or inconsistent eating patterns. The body slows down when fuel is low.
Low Blood Sugar: Energy crashes before meals signal a need for steady fuel.
Adrenal Dysregulation: Skipping meals stresses your adrenal glands, causing fatigue.
Inadequate Macronutrient Intake: Meals lacking protein or fat fail to sustain energy.
Hormonal Imbalance: Cortisol and insulin shifts can sap energy before mealtimes.
How to Manage
Eat Every 4–5 Hours: Prevent dips with regular, balanced meals.
Frontload Your Day: A protein-rich breakfast helps regulate energy.
Track Energy Patterns: Keep a food log to catch timing-related fatigue.
Support Adrenals: Consider adaptogenic herbs and adequate salt intake.
