I Cant Wake Up!

Having trouble waking up in the morning? Learn how to stop hitting the snooze button. In this video, I discuss strategies to help your body wake up and increase alertness in the morning. 1) Increase morning light - more light in your bedroom in the morning helps burn off melatonin (the sleepy hormone). Try a sunrise/sunset alarm clock that gradually increases light in the room in the mornings. 2) Support cortisol production - Cortisol is known as the stress hormone, but you need appropriate amounts to wake up and remain alert. Constant stress can deplete your cortisol levels. Supplement with vitamin C, vitamin B5, and adrenal cortex in the morning with breakfast (supplements should be used temporarily--only while you need it.) 3) Support ATP (the body's fuel source) production - consider an NADH supplement. NOTE: Fatigue and inability to wake up can be caused by a medical condition like hypothyroidism among others. Work with your doctor to make sure these strategies are right for you.
