You wake up, check your blood sugar...and the number is high before you've even had a sip of coffee.
Again. 😩
So you start recalling everything you ate yesterday, trying to figure out where you went wrong.
But here's the thing: Your fasting blood sugar in the morning has nothing to do with last night's dinner.
Yet most people obsess over it and feel defeated by it daily.
High fasting blood sugar in the morning is known as "Dawn Phenomenon", and it's largely driven by hormones like cortisol — not food.
👉🏽 But naming it doesn't fix it.
Here's what you need to know about your morning blood sugar:
💡 It reflects insulin resistance, not what you ate the night before.
💡 Because insulin resistance isn't reversed overnight, neither is this number — no matter how perfectly you eat.
💡 Your mealtime numbers and A1C will likely improve before your morning number does (yes, really).
Here's what I tell every single one of my clients:
Stop chasing that morning number and focus on your mealtime numbers instead.
That's where your progress will show up immediately — and over time, THAT'S what will bring your morning number down. 📉
If you want to improve your mealtime numbers so you can finally move that stubborn morning number, that's exactly what I break down in my free masterclass.
Inside, I'll cover 3 food-based steps that have helped thousands of people improve their blood sugar (whether they're on meds or trying to avoid them).
