If you’ve ever been told your blood sugar is “normal” but you still feel tired, anxious, or can't sleep, this episode is for you.
Most people think blood sugar only matters if you have diabetes. But the truth is, your blood sugar impacts every single system in your body... from your energy and sleep to your hormones, cravings, and mood.
In this episode, Dani breaks down what blood sugar actually does in the body, the subtle signs it’s off (even when your labs look fine), and how modern life, from artificial light to chronic stress, quietly disrupts metabolic health. You’ll learn why these issues go far beyond food and how your circadian rhythms, nervous system, digestion, minerals, and mitochondria all play a role in keeping you balanced.
You’ll walk away understanding why steady blood sugar is foundational for optimal energy, hormones, mood, and long-term health.
🔍 In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why blood sugar regulation matters for everyone, not just those with diabetes
- The connection between blood sugar, energy, hormones, and your nervous system
- How modern light environments, stress, and sleep patterns create glucose instability
- Subtle signs your blood sugar is off — even with “normal” lab results
- The role of mitochondria, leptin, and insulin in metabolic balance
- Why food is only one part of the equation (and why timing, light, and stress matter just as much)
