Metabolic Syndrome?: There are several possible reasons. If you ate a meal high in tryptophan such as turkey, this can cause post meal drowsiness. However this can also be a sign of Insulin resistance. If you get high levels of Insulin release after eating carbohydrates it can cause you to feel tired. It is also associated with weight gain, elevation of blood pressure, and brain fog.
