Why Am I So Tired After Sleeping? | TCM Metabolic Reset Protocol

Upon waking, note energy level (1-10). If <4, check for 'adrenal fatigue' signs: craving salty foods or afternoon crashes

Within 1 hour of waking: 20g protein (eggs, Greek yogurt) + 1 tbsp fiber (chia, flax) to stabilize blood sugar

Before meals: 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar in water to stimulate digestion. Avoid sugary probiotics.

While sitting: Rub lower abdomen (3 inches below navel) clockwise 36x then counter 24x to boost transformation function

90 min before bed: Dim lights, no screens, sip chamomile/longan tea to lower sympathetic 'fire' and support liver processing
