That sudden irritability when you haven’t eaten—better known as being “hangry”—is more than just a mood. It’s your body’s response to shifting blood sugar levels. But is the fix as simple as eating more often?
In this episode of Wonder Why, we unpack what’s really happening when hunger turns to anger, why the order of what you eat matters, and how stabilizing blood sugar can help prevent those crashes. We’re joined by Karen, a licensed nutritionist and board-certified in integrative and functional nutrition. She specializes in helping people personalize their approach to blood sugar and cardiometabolic health so they can feel more in control every day.
