Does Eating Make You Sleepy 🥱😴?

[sage2021]

My son and I both feel the need to go to sleep after we eat.
I wonder 🤔 why this happens to us?

Not a big deal if you ask me.. 😏😏 Your body just flips into rest-and-digest mode after you eat, so blood and energy go to your stomach and you get that sleepy wave. Totally normal.

A few certain foods like turkey meat, yeah.

[exitseven]

yes, now that I am older I often start to fall asleep after I have dinner.

It's normal but not good at digestion.

It happens to my wife but not to me.
