Always getting tired after lunch? Part of this phenomenon is due to basic physiology, but there can be additional factors that exacerbate it. Here's what to watch out for.
After a busy morning, lunch can feel like just the pick-me-up you need — but sometimes the meal you thought would energize you is the very thing that makes you want to nap at your desk. “As a registered dietitian , I’ve heard people say that often over my career, so I think it’s fairly common for people to have that response,” said Julie Stefanski, a spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
The foods you should eat to jump-start your morning, and 2 recipes to try out “Someone that feels very tired after a meal might consider looking at slowing down their eating and cutting back on their portions a little bit to the point that they’re not overeating,” Stefanski said. “Because no matter what you eat — whether it’s carbs, fat, protein — if you eat a lot more than what your body is designed to handle, your body’s going to spend a long time digesting that food.
When you should eat to fuel your workout “A five-minute walk or something helps to improve circulation and alertness, as well,” Arévalo said. Poor sleep Sleep regulates your hormones, including your digestive ones, according to Kirkpatrick. And if you’re sleep-deprived, your body’s likely to suppress the hormone called leptin that signals “I’m full and don’t need any more” or elevate ghrelin, the hormone that commands “feed me,” she explained.
