A member asked:

Why do i feel real dizzy after eating? i felt like i was gonna pass out id i didnt relax so i laid down.

Could be: post prandial hypoglycemia, an early sign of diabetes. If your symptoms persist, get to your doctor to have tests for diabetes, especially if you have a family history for it.
