Either a meal after breakfast, lunch or dinner, we feel sleepy or something like we want to go back in bed and have a nap.

I think it's because after eating you tend to have too much sugar in your body which maybe the cause why you feel sleepy after eating.:)

Yes, you are right. Sugar plays a vital role in the blood vessels in the body. They are the nutrients that fully fill-in and gives us carbohydrates. If you say "sugar" it is not the literal meaning of sugar that being use in making a coffee. When we say sugar, this is the nutrients that form the carbohydrates in our body, that when the sugar levels reach the equilibrium level, our stomach or if may say the digestive organs will stop for a while and will have their relaxation for the meantime.

Isn't it also related to the fact that the body consumes more energy to process the food you just ate?

Hi Aira,

We are experiencing this problems all the times, when we are eating
the foods and feel to have the napping, and most of the times I used
to have this types of napping only in the lunch time, because my lunch
always having lots of items and feel full of my tummy that is also reason
we have the feeling of napping. That is the reasons most of the medical
professional would advise us don't take the foods full in stomach and also
advised to take the foods in half stomach and half stomach is empty. So
the fullness of the stomach would have the feeling and also having the
sensation of napping in the brain and ultimately we are going for the napping.

Have a nice day.
