That's because your adrenal/ACTH output is too low according to the circadian cycle.
Which is what I explained above regarding sleep downregulating adrenal strength and sugar doing the same.
But then why do you suggest sugar consumption before bed?
You didn't seem to read my posts.
In some people sugar backfills the stress pathways, in others it mimics adrenal hormones (maintain blood sugar) while downregulating adrenal output.
So you mean there is an amount of sugar before bed that in some people might give benefits without compromising their ability to wake up in the morning?
