The dawn phenomenon is a natural physiological process where early morning hormones signal the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream, causing elevated blood sugar levels before breakfast; this occurs when the liver has been storing excess sugar from previous meals and the body attempts to burn it off, and it is not a willpower problem but rather a sign that the liver may be overwhelmed.

Why Is My Morning Blood Sugar So High?Added:
You wake up, check your blood sugar, and it's 150, 160, maybe even 170. Makes no sense, right? You haven't even eaten yet. This happens because early morning hormones tell your liver to dump stored glucose into your bloodstream. There's actually a name for it, the dawn phenomenon. It's not a willpower problem, but it can be a sign that your liver is overwhelmed. Your liver has been storing excess sugar from previous meals, and now your body is trying to burn it off. The good news, there are simple ways to support your liver and improve insulin resistance naturally.
