What Could Drowsiness Post Lunch Indicate?

I am always very sleepy after I eat lunch. This is not an issue so much after breakfast or dinner. I usually eat a good breakfast and skip lunch and have dinner. It does not seem to matter what kind of food I eat for lunch, I just feel drugged the rest of the day after eating.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Welcome to HCM. I am doubtful That you are taking heavy food, no matter what type of food you are taking.After heavy food,the brain concentrates more on the functions of GIT like digestion / absorption. It has less concentration on other works . So you feel sleepy. Give less work to brain on digestion when you are on work. Enjoy life with healthy light food.
