Back to EpisodesTired, Hungry, and Stuck? How Poor Sleep Affects Hormones, Cravings, and Weight Loss with Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown
Description
You might be blaming your hormones, your medication, or yourself... when the real problem could be your sleep.
Sleep is one of the most overlooked parts of metabolic health. And when it's off, everything feels harder. You feel hungrier. Your cravings get stronger. Your energy drops. Your blood sugar is harder to manage. Progress slows down, even when you feel like you're doing everything right.
In this episode, sleep medicine physician Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown explains why sleep matters so much, what could be disrupting yours, and why waking up exhausted is not something you should just accept.
