why do people get tired after they eat?

Basically digestion takes a lot of energy. Like 10% on average for humans, and that is the average for the whole day not just after a meal.
Because you eat too many carbs, which raises your insulin level. Especially highly processed foods. If you get a healthier diet you don’t get tired after eating.
Well … when you feed a baby, they go into a milk coma, and that never stops – it just evolves to actual food.
Because the food they eat is dead. Enzymes are in present in full force before you cook. Moreover only Jesus was good and turning the dead living, for us humans we need to sleep 5 extra hours to quell the bacterial revolution of purification process that occurs for the almost 2 days worth of bacterial growth in our systems tropical temperature before a majority of what we eat is released as waste without being utilized.
Try ramping up the percentage of your food that is uncooked is fruits n veggies and see that eating living food doesn’t make u sleepy after eating as the energy is readily available.
Turning life into life is an easier process. Less demanding less sleepy.
Digest that 😁
unrelated but is there a way to counteract the sleepiness after eating?
If you’re speaking about instant after they eat – other comments answered it pretty well.
If you’re speaking some time after eating:
This is because modern diet is based on carbs, on sugars. These get digested very quickly creating a spike in blood sugar. Your body then starts releasing large amounts of insulin hormone to get rid of it and overdoes it leading to insulin crash, where your blood sugar levels drop to very low levels temporarily. With modern diet sugar is your source of energy your body is used to so you feel tired when that happens.
