Q. I'm so sleepy after eating that I can't stand it (food coma / postprandial somnolence).
If your digestive function is weak, an excessive amount of blood is diverted to the gastrointestinal tract for digestion. This temporarily reduces blood flow to the brain, which can intensify post-meal sleepiness.
