I’ve had something similar going on, but I recently learned about “digestive walks”. The sleepiness comes from a massive blood sugar spike after eating a meal, but if I do some light exercise, like a 10 to 15 minute walk, right after eating, it pulls the energy straight from the bloodstream, before the sugars have a chance to do damage.
The upshot is no after meal tiredness, better cholesterol, it’s easier to manage my weight, and there’s much less risk of becoming diabetic. (It’s apparently helpful for those who already have diabetes as well.)
