If you wake up in the middle of the night alert and wide awake, it’s likely a nighttime cortisol spike, not insomnia.
When blood sugar drops overnight, your adrenal glands release cortisol to raise it, shutting down melatonin and waking you up.
This can lead to:
Poor sleep quality
Increased belly fat
Lower testosterone
Higher inflammation
Most people are deficient in magnesium, the key mineral that helps regulate cortisol.
Protocol:
300–400 mg elemental magnesium
60–90 minutes before bed
Use glycinate, threonate, or taurate forms
Also:
Get morning sunlight
Eat dinner 3 hours before bed
Avoid heavy carb spikes at night
This isn’t a sleep problem.It’s a hormone timing problem.
Fix the mineral. Stabilize blood sugar. Anchor your circadian rhythm.
