depends on the meal, big heavy meals that require lots of digestion will tire you out more. Lighter meals work better. They (whoever they are) say you should eat many smaller meals each day)Originally posted by: SherEPunjab

When you eat big meals, blood is diverted to the gi system, so it is taken from other systems. It is one of the two main systems, parasympathetic is your "feed or breed" system. When you do either you want to rest.
The systems are the parasympathetic and sympathetic, which are in order the "feed or breed" or the "fight or flight". So fights, no hunger and you are amped up from adrenaline. the feeding is the opposite, you want to eat and sleep. It has been around for thousands of years and you are no excepton, lol.
thanks man. i really didn't understand that, but i'm sure you know your'e stuff.
uhh..have any ideas on how to take the sleepiness away?
Is is a simple physical reaction that you are talking about though. As far as Turkey, tryptophan (sp?) can tire you out, not just from the huge dinner you ate, lol.
LOL! I read that was heavy metals, and I'm like why the hell are you eating heavy metals?
