Why Do I Feel Sleepy After Eating? Causes & Solutions

Question
Hello Sir. I'm a 41 year old male. My problem is I tend to feel very sleepy after I eat a meal, especially lunch. Do you know what causes this? Thanks for any imput.....Ed

Answer
Yes, this is usually due to a high carbohydrate or sugar content in the meal. If you increase the protein, fat or dairy component this usually stops. You may want to ask your doctor if you have been checked for Diabetes since that can do this also. OK?
