Blood Sugar Rollercoaster

Most people nowadays have some trouble with poor blood sugar balance from stress, inactivity, and suboptimal sleep. As a result, after a high-carbohydrate meal, their blood sugar can rise very high and cause many healthy problems.

In the short term, the blood sugar dips cause energy crash, craving, fatigue, headache, dizziness, and “hangriness.” As a result, they may experience sugar cravings.

In the long term, the blood sugar roller coasters can cause your cells to become resistant, and may lead to belly fat, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular diseases, and many more issues.

One way to stabilize is to create blood sugar balance by either eating fewer carbs or slowly absorbing carbohydrates. 

Oxidative Stress

High blood sugar can increase oxidative stress, which ages your cells and creates inflammation. Hyperglycemia leads to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are highly reactive molecules that can damage cells and tissues. This imbalance between ROS production and antioxidant defenses is a key factor in the development and progression of many diabetes-related complications. 

Weight Loss 

Weight loss requires you to be in a caloric deficit, which means burning more than you eat. 

• Balances chronic inflammation – Chronic inflammation from unhealthy diets (metabolic endotoxemia) can cause leptin resistance, which may lead to weight gain.  

• Jumpstarts mitochondria – Many people who struggle with weight loss have sluggish mitochondria. Bitter melon extract can jumpstart the mitochondria by bringing fatty acids into the mitochondria, making fat burning more efficient. Also, by increasing a process called mitochondrial uncoupling, they use the energy to produce heat instead of for other cellular processes.

• Activates AMPK – AMPK is an energy sensor that activates fat burning. In Berberine Breakthrough, quercetin, berberine, ginsenoside Rb1, Alpha-lipoic acid, resveratrol, and cinnamon work together to activate AMPK.

Overall, stabilizing blood sugar typically reduces the hunger, cravings, and moodiness that arise during blood sugar lows. You will also reduce your cortisol due to lower stress levels, making it easier to lose fat from the abdominal area. This should make it easier to stay on a healthy and caloric-deficit diet.

Supports Healthy Hormone Balance and Stress Response

Constantly being on blood sugar rollercoasters is very stressful to the body because the blood sugar lows put your body in an emergency response mode. When your body is in a fight or flight mode, your hormones, regenerative, and reproductive functions go on the backburner.

Therefore, poor blood sugar control can cause hormone imbalances, worsening symptoms such as PMS, hot flashes, and low libido.

It is critical to improve your blood sugar control if you want to balance your hormones and have a healthy stress response. 

Supports Good Mood and Healthy Brain Function

Your brain controls not only your thoughts but also many aspects of your physiology on autopilot. This takes a lot of glucose. It weighs 2% of your bodyweight but takes up to 20% of your daily calorie intake.

As a result, your brain is exquisitely sensitive to major blood glucose fluctuation. Extreme blood sugar fluctuations can worsen anxiety, irritability, depression, brain fog.

Anti-Aging

Glucose is a type of oxidizing sugar, which means high blood glucose can increase oxidative stress and accelerate aging. If you want to live a long and healthy life, you want to keep your blood sugar even-keeled. increased glucose levels in the bloodstream, especially due to high sugar intake, can contribute to the aging process, particularly affecting skin health. 

This happens through a process called glycation, where sugar molecules bind to proteins in the skin, leading to the formation of Advanced Glycation End products (AGEs). AGEs damage collagen and elastin, the proteins that keep skin firm and elastic, causing wrinkles, sagging, and other signs of aging.
