Hi @ all!
I experience being in a better physical shape in the evenings. Even if my day is really bad with low energy levels and digestive problems, I often improve an hour or two after dinner (around 8 pm).
At first I thought it's because of the meals in the evening (in Germany we eat wholemeal bread for dinner). But doing the same in the morning and/or for lunch does not seem to have the same effect.
So I thought: What could cause these improvements. It might be that hormones fluctuate, especially cortisol (The psychiatrist I had to visit because my doc told me to said that he would recommend a 24 hours cortisol test. That's why I first thought about my improvements being linked to cortisol) ???
What do you think? And do you experience the same?
Thank you!
