We should be able to sleep deeply and restfully through the night.

Because proper sleep isn’t just about feeling refreshed—it’s one of the most important factors for high testosterone, a strong body, and disease-free longevity.

Yet, a lot of guys wake up around 3 AM and struggle to fall back asleep.

It’s often accompanied by sweating, rage fits, and sudden alertness.

It happened to me too.

Why You Wake Up at 3 AM

If you wore a CGM (continuous glucose monitor), you’d see that blood sugar crashes around this time.

In response, your body releases stress hormones—cortisol, noradrenaline, and adrenaline—to:
✔ Break down glycogen from the liver
✔ Create new glucose from amino acids

This stress response jolts you awake, leaving you sweaty, restless, and frustrated.

But while a drop in blood sugar and a rise in cortisol is the cause, it’s not the root cause.

How I Fixed My 3 AM Wake-Ups

When this happened to me, I’d wake up sweating and furious—for no reason.

I’d stumble into the kitchen, chug 500ml of milk with 2 tbsp of sugar, and within 5-10 minutes, I’d cool down and fall back asleep.

It worked… but was I supposed to do this for the rest of my life?

No. It was a temporary fix, not a real solution.

The real root cause is metabolic inflexibility due to:

Nutritional deficiencies
Toxin burden

In every health issue, the answer is almost always:

You need more of a specific nutrient
You need to eliminate a toxic burden
Or both

That’s exactly what I focused on—and why I never wake up at 3 AM anymore.

Now, if I wake up, it’s just to pee, and I’m back asleep before my head hits the pillow.
