What I find a lot of times is people have what's called dessert for breakfast. So think about pancakes with syrup on it, or French toast, or muffins, or coffee. But now this coffee has like all this sugar and things in it. And what that does is it spikes your blood sugar first thing in the morning, and then it will crash. And then all day you're on this roller coaster with your insulin. Mm-hmm. And it will cause you to want to go for more coffee. It may have you go for a sugary snack. All of those different types of things could also be signals that there's things going on with your hormones in your body that's causing issues with fatigue and all of that.
