Why Do I Always Wake Up at 3am? –…

If you always wake up at 3am, there may be a simple answer…you are too stressed. Fortunately for most – there is a solution, but first we need to understand why you wake up.

Why Stress Causes You to Wake Up at 3am

Stress causes the adrenal glands to fire off adrenaline. This gives you a burst of energy to deal with stressful situations. Adrenaline also raises the heart rate, increases respiration, dilates the pupils, slows down digestion and causes muscles to contract. It’s like caffeine on steroids!

So if you are stressed or upset it can be impossible to fall asleep, but why does it always wake you up at 3am?

3am is when your liver regenerates. To do so, it needs glycogen. The problem is that adrenaline causes your cells to use up glycogen. So if you are often stressed, your body may not have enough glycogen for the liver to regenerate at 3am. If your liver cannot get the glycogen it needs, your adrenal glands will compensate by releasing adrenalin, which is why you are wide awake and ready for action, not exactly a state you want to be in at 3am.

**Note: If you frequently wake up in the middle of the night, you need to read: Why Do I Always Wake Up at 3am?

The adrenal glands, known as the “adrenals”, are two small organs that sit on top of the kidneys. The adrenal glands are primarily responsible for helping people deal with stress. They do this through the production of adrenaline, cortisol and a few other hormones.

Adrenal Fatigue

Every stressful thought that we have causes an unhealthy reaction in the body. When we are stressed, our bodies release adrenaline which is great if we are fighting for survival or trying to escape a deadly animal, but it is overkill in our everyday lives. Constant mental stress can lead to adrenal fatigue.

Symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue Include:

cravings for salt or salty foods
trouble sleeping/insomnia
lack of energy
difficulty waking up in the morning
cravings for simple carbohydrates
laziness

Many people blame themselves for being overweight, but as you can see, adrenal fatigue could be the cause! Stressed adrenals can also lead to a variety of secondary issues including thyroid dysfunction. Adrenal fatigue is like a gateway to other health issues. Don’t despair! Adrenal fatigue can be managed through custom supplement regimen, water intake, stress management, good sleep habits and exercise.
