Why do I feel sleepy when I eat a lot of sweets?

Answer #1

I think in general when you eat a lot of food it makes you sleepy? But that’s odd I’m usually bouncing off the walls when I eat a lot of sweets haha.

Answer #2

Because sugar slows your body down.

Answer #3

I usually get tired when i’m really full. But it could be just because you’re body is using alot of energy to digest food.

Answer #4

I would be worried about this, because you shouldn’t feel sleepy after eating a lot of sweets, your liver should be able to handle it all. If your liver isn’t capable of doing it’s job that indicates a serious medical problem.I would suggest seeing your primary care physician and telling them about this. If this happens frequently, or you find yoruself hungry all the time I would be really concerned, ask your doctor for an A1C blood test.

This will test your blood for minerals, vitamins, and nutrients and check for any severe imbalances.
