    Ever eat a good meal… and then suddenly feel like sleeping? 😴

    Here’s why it happens — and what you can do about it 

     

    1. Your blood rushes to your stomach

    Your body focuses on digestion after a big meal. That reduces blood flow to your brain — and makes you feel sleepy.

     

     

    2. High-carb meals = crash

    Too much rice, yam, bread, or sugar spikes your blood sugar, then drops it fast — causing tiredness.

     

     

    3. Lack of protein & fiber

    If your meals are mostly carbs with little protein/fiber, they digest too quickly — giving you a sugar crash.

     

     

    4. You overeat

    Large portions force your body to work overtime. That stress makes you feel lazy and heavy.

     

     

     

     What to do:

    – Eat balanced meals (carbs + protein + veg)

    – Don’t overeat. Eat small, satisfying portions.

    – Avoid sugary drinks.

    – Take a short walk after eating.

    – Drink water, not soda.
