Feeling drained after meals is one of the most common things I see, and it’s often brushed off as “normal.”
What’s usually missed is that eating doesn’t just change blood sugar. It changes how your body directs energy next. When that process isn’t smooth, energy gets pulled toward digestion and storage instead of focus and momentum.
That’s why the fatigue feels physical. Heavy. Sluggish.
And why it can happen even when basic labs look fine.
Post-meal crashes usually follow a pattern. They’re not random.
