0:00.0	So I want to touch on what happens if your blood sugars are high in the morning.
0:18.5	Now I've done several other videos on this topic and I've given different reasons it could
0:22.6	be your liver or your adrenal, but there's one more common cause of this situation I want
0:28.4	to cover.
