4 reasons why you crave sugar in the morning

HẠ MÂY (Theo livestrong) |

Sugary snacks can be a treat we crave from time to time. However, morning sugar cravings can be caused by a number of health conditions.

Hypoglycemia

One reason you may be craving sugar in the morning is low blood sugar, also known as hypoglycemia. This is more common in people with diabetes.

If you wake up craving sugar due to hypoglycemia, eat or drink something containing carbohydrates such as a small piece of fruit, half a cup of soda, or a spoonful of honey. This can help bring your blood sugar back into balance.

Not eating enough

If you don't eat enough for several days in a row, your body will crave quick energy in the form of sugar and processed carbohydrates, so make sure you're getting enough energy throughout the day.

If you have a consistent eating schedule and still wake up with sugar cravings, having a bedtime snack like Greek yogurt, nut butter, etc. can help.

Stress

Stress can be the reason why you crave sugar when you wake up. Stress is linked to cravings for foods high in sugar, fat, and carbohydrates. To avoid sugar cravings, we should also relieve stress.

Not getting enough sleep

Another reason you might be craving sugar after waking up is because you haven't gotten enough sleep. Lack of sleep increases your cravings for sugary, salty, and starchy foods.

So if you wake up craving sugar in the morning, make sure you get at least 7 hours of sleep a night. To get a good night's sleep, you need to sleep in a cool, dark, quiet room. Stick to a consistent sleep schedule. Limit screen time before bed. Avoid eating, drinking coffee, and drinking alcohol before bed...
