Why do you fall asleep every time you eat?

Answer 1

You could have narcolepsy or sleep apnea.

You could have hypoglycemia. Your body's ability to store glucose is impaired or you have a parasite stealing your glucose so you feel alright or even ecstatic for a short time after eating then fall asleep. Look into what could have caused this for you (eg. particular medications especially antibiotics) then get your metabolism and digestion back on track through:

1) exercise

2) drinking plenty of water

3) staying away from foods full of simple sugars (like cakes, chocolate, biscuits, icecream) and white flour, rice, pasta and pastry. These make you feel great for a short time, then crash. Don't drink fruit juice - eat the whole fruit.

4) trying to eat smaller amounts throughout the whole day instead of a few large meals

5) eating a raw salad every day. If you are at the point where even a raw salad is putting you to sleep, eat some high protein food with it eg. lentils, beans, dairy, meat and some 'good' fats eg. olives, avocados, nuts and seeds.

When you are crashing, instead of reaching for a chocolate bar, try cinnamon in milk or yogurt, or a banana rolled in cinnamon and coconut.

If your hypoglycemia is caused by candidiasis, you can kill it by eating probiotics eg. unsweetened yogurt, garlic and onions. Note that when you start to kill the candida, you will probably feel worse for a while before you feel better. If the candida is in your blood stream killing it can induce depression, anxiety, extreme rage and psychosis. This is extremely serious. If you have any indications of these symptoms, do not attempt to kill the candida unsupervised, and take it extremely slowly.

Following these guidelines may take a few weeks to start working, depending on what stage you are at with the hypoglycemia. Even when you have recovered, you will find that these are good guidelines for everyone to follow to stay healthy.

A lot of people with undiagnosed hypoglycemia and/or candidiasis start avoiding carbohydrates altogether even complex carbs eg. follow Aitkens. This may provide short term relief, but your body needs the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants found in fruit and vegetables. They are absolutely essential to your health. Don't kid yourself into thinking that a good supplement can replace fruit and vegetables in your diet. Following any diet that does not include a mixture of protein, carbohydrates and fats will make you unwell.
