Are you feeling hangry? #nutrition
The term "hangry" has become widely recognized and captures a common experience. It refers to the irritability and anger that some people experience when they haven’t eaten for a few hours.
Being "hangry" is a direct result of glucose levels fluctuating significantly in your body, often described as a glucose roller coaster. These fluctuations can lead to high spikes followed by sharp drops in glucose levels.
The speaker shares a personal account of how they often experienced being extremely irritable and unpleasant when they hadn’t eaten, or their glucose levels dropped unexpectedly.
- "I used to be hangry all the time," they admit, emphasizing the frequency and regularity of these mood swings.
- The agitation was so pronounced that it affected their interactions with others, causing them to snap and be rude, something they’re "not proud of."
Understanding and managing your glucose levels is crucial. Regular meals and choosing foods with a low glycemic index can help maintain stable glucose levels and prevent drastic mood swings.
"Like do not talk to me if I’m hungry kind of vibes," the speaker jokes, highlighting the real impact of glucose lows on emotional responses.
