I had noodles again today.
It’s not every time.
But often enough, sleep rushes in.
Today, I ended up falling asleep.
Even though I had so much to do.
It’s not a lack of willpower.
My body simply reacts this way.
There is a scientific reason for it.
When I eat noodles, my blood sugar rises quickly.
And then it drops just as fast.
In that moment, my brain feels like it’s running out of energy.
So I get sleepy, foggy, and I stop.
Then I blame myself.
Why am I so weak?
But the truth is simple.
The fuel was wrong.
If I want my day to run properly,
I need better fuel.
If I want to stay focused,
I have to change what I eat
before I question my willpower.
