A biohacker has offered a possible explanation for why people wake up during the night and struggle to get back to sleep, pointing to a drop in blood sugar as the cause. The Indian Express reported the claim on Tuesday, September 22, 2026, describing the proposed fix as a response to what the biohacker called a "blood sugar crash."
According to The Indian Express, the biohacker shared the solution as a way to help people return to sleep after waking in the night. The report frames the nighttime awakening as tied to blood sugar levels rather than to other common sleep disruptions.
The Indian Express did not provide the full details of the method in the material available, so the specific steps the biohacker recommends are not outlined here. The report presents the blood sugar explanation as the biohacker's own account, not as a finding from a published clinical study.
Waking during the night is a common complaint, and the reasons people give for it vary widely. The claim reported by The Indian Express places the emphasis on metabolic factors, specifically a fall in blood sugar, as the trigger for waking and as the target of the suggested remedy.
Readers should treat the biohacker's explanation as a single perspective rather than established medical guidance. What to watch next: whether the biohacker's specific recommendations are detailed further, and whether any clinical research is cited to support the blood sugar link to nighttime waking.
