The Impact of Glucose on Energy Levels
Meals heavy in sugars and carbohydrates can lead to significant fluctuations in glucose levels, causing a spike in energy followed by a notable crash. This response can dictate how individuals feel after eating, impacting energy levels and hunger cues. Since approximately 88% of people have suboptimal metabolic health, glucose tracking may offer valuable insights for improving overall well-being.
