How I beat blood-sugar induced anxiety

Hey everyone,

I wanted to share something close to my heart today, because I know so many of us here are struggling with anxiety and high blood glucose. For years, I've struggled with anxiety that kept me up at night, low testosterone, and a family tendency toward high blood glucose that made every meal feel like a risk. On top of that, my hair started shedding more than usual. I was trying random stacks but i did not continue with most of the supplements because many had no perceived effects.

What frustrated me most was how one-size-fits-all advice you find on social media did not work. I read about ashwagandha for stress (later I learned that it was liver toxic) or fedogia agrestis for testosterone, but without considering my unique biology, interactions, or timing, so it was a guessing game hard to measure.

That struggle pushed me to try so many supplement to get over my issues (mostly anxiety). I spent countless hours poring over studies, tracking my blood work, and experimenting carefully. Slowly, I pieced together a protocol that worked:
- proper nutrition to stabilize glucose (near ketogenic),
- morning weight training to boost testosterone naturally,
- going to bed everyday on time (10pm),
- targeted supplements to fill the gaps

Things like creatine, tongkat ali, cayenne pepper and most importantly cinnamon made a massive difference for me. The key was personalization and tracking, i had to adjust doses based on my bloodwork results and how I felt day to day. I kept everything in an my supplement tracker.

My routine:

Breakfast:
- 4 eggs with cayenne pepper
- Black coffee with 10g creatine and 1g cinnamon
- 1g of tongkat ali

Lunch:
- Black coffee with 1g cinnamon

My anxiety is gone, my testosterone levels climbed back up, I felt way calmer, my blood glucose stayed steady without crashes, and best of all, the hair shedding stopped completely.

I am so happy i found that combo to beat my anxiety. It took me years of trying to find that out. I hope it will help some of you struggling with seemingly incurable anxiety.

Please let me know if that works for you as well.

Take care
