Do you get sleepy after you eat? Let’s talk about why that is and what to do about it.
It’s important to realize that it’s not normal for you to feel tired after you eat. You’re getting fuel when you eat, so you should feel more energized. The main cause of sleepiness after eating is a high-carb diet, but what if you’re on keto?
If you’re on the keto diet but you’re still tired after you eat, there could be a few different things going on.
Causes of sleepiness after eating while doing keto:
1. Not enough hydrochloric acid in the stomach (this is usually not the big problem)
What you can do:
• Take apple cider vinegar (ACV)
• Take betaine hydrochloride when you eat
2. Your cells are not pulling in nutrients or fuel because of insulin resistance (this is probably not what’s making you tired, but it’s making you feel unsatisfied when you eat)
3. Your insulin is high (this is the real reason)
But you’re on keto, so shouldn’t your insulin be lower? Well, eating also triggers insulin. If you’ve had insulin resistance for a long time, it can take time to correct the high levels of insulin. Even if you don’t eat carbs, eating triggers insulin.
What you can do:
• Do intermittent fasting
• Keep your carbs low
• Consume a moderate amount of protein
• Give it time (it takes 1-3 months to become keto-adapted)
• Get more sleep at night (take vitamin B1 and vitamin D3 before bed)

Thanks for watching! I hope this helps explain why you get sleepy after you eat.
My mind is so sharp and active on empty stomach. After lunch I get a brain fog.
Same. 😢
Same
Same thing happens with me
What I religiously do after every meal is this: WALK.
...to the bed?
hihi..
excellent, I walk a lot more these days and I can tell that it's really good for me
That will conquer any food coma
I also do the same
Bro i felt sleepy after i walked 😭
You are very true on that sir I actually find myself more energetic when fasting.
Met too. I've been feeling euphoric
You would get the same energy eating the correct amount of calories (small compact meals), throughout the day. Fasting is a fad that will get tiresome over time and ultimately cause binge eating sooner or later. It’s just to extreme to use every day.
@@CocoPink44 cheers 😅😅😅
@@godgunsandgoldens well I Don't do intermittent fasting but seen a difference in eating and fasting alright that's my own experience. Fasting for me is for other reasons not a prolonged time.
@@godgunsandgoldens I think it depends how you do it. I'm fasting but not letting myself get hungry. I've never felt better in my life and lost 38 pounds. For me its not even about the weight its about feeling better. The weight loss is a bonus to me. I will never go back to any other lifestyle. Not being bloated feels amazing.
I started keto to solve this problem and I now use this "symptom" as an indicator of the amount of carbs the food I eat has :D
Interesting, I feel more tired after a meal when it has too much protein. Since protein takes more energy to digest
@@Pwjdjskw Dr berg has a video on that
Hi all
@@Pwjdjskwtoo much protein can also cause insulin spike, if i remember correctly
A brisk 15 min walk after eating burns off a lot of insulin. Gets me past the slump. I usually crave protein b4 my salad. OMAD seems easier now that we have less hrs of daylight.
Lol , I was trying to figure out what protein B4 is just for a second.
Agree. Big benefit to 15 min walk after eating, your muscles use use up the glucose from the meal. Especially useful if you've eaten carbs.
@@coolroy4300 ;) sorry my shortcut confused ya.
@@rt3box6tx74 That's ok friend.
@@coolroy4300 😃😃😃😃
Yes! Fasting and KETO ARE SO WORTH IT!! I love not feeling tired anymore!
I would add that eating good Omega 3 fats on Keto or Carnivore barely stimulate insulin secretion, as well as net zero carbs like Broccoli. So it’s not entirely correct that Dr. Berg says that anytime you eat you secrete insulin.
I will give Keto and intermittent dads try!! It will works wonders.
keto is bad for you mf
2:46 This is the best gesture yet the simplest way to demonstrate IF.
Dr. Berg, thank you very much for brining back the whiteboard. It makes the subject much more on point having the visual information as well.
Your simply just one of the best Doctor,always short and straight to the point Your videos are always on point.Thank You very much for always wanting to share your knowledge with us.
Falling asleep after eating especially in the morning after a good nights sleep is a classic symptom of food intolerance. i am salicylate intolerant, now recovering from a systemic collapse because my adaptive response to eating small amounts of fruits high in salicylates drained my adrenals and left in in adrenal insufficiency crisis. This adaptive response was first described and proved in rats by Dr. Hans Selye in the 1930's. Given how your entire health, treatment, philosophy and practice is wholly nutrition based, I am rather surprised you haven't dealt with food intolerance - it's more widespread than many know. I used to have to find a quiet place around 10am to sleep for half an hour after a good 9 hours sleep - but I would have had perhaps some fruit or tomatoes or other high salicylate vegetables for my dinner the night before. One man who developed a high intolerance to eggs, when fed a cake by disbelieving friends, assured it had no egg, fell asleep half way through the meal. !! Perhaps you could include food intolerances in your repertoire as it has great significance.
interesting view, thanks
Great information as always and so clear and understandable! Thank you! 🙏
Right on time! Just started IF last week and had a major crash right after eating yesterday. Will use these tips immediately! Thanks Dr. Berg!
The sleepiness happened for me while I was attending junior school. The school would often write to my mum to say I needed earlier nights. I kept falling asleep in class most afternoons. As an adult I made the decision not to eat until bedtime which I've done ever since. It's the only way I seem to be able to cope. The tiredness I get from eating is overwhelming. I literally can't keep my eyes open. So thank you Dr Berg, this explains so much.
I was always tired at school too.....
Now I understand it was because of the amount of sugar I ate.
Children should be raised without having knowledge of sugar and sweets.
All the candy they buy at lunch break....it ruines them.
Me too. Could not keep my eyes open in Chemistry class after lunch.
@@angie1598 Yes just the one meal. Find it hard sometimes if I'm cooking something for my children. But generally have had good energy levels. As a family we had covid March 2020. Since then I'm shattered after being up for only four hours. If only sleeping was in the Olympics! It's so frustrating.
@@angie1598 I didn't realise others suffered with this until I found this great channel
If my day is busy I definitely can’t eat or it goes straight to hell. I hate having to explain this to my friends that can eat all day.
Exactly Sir, It Happens to me almost all the time, Thankz for sharing this vital information for us, God Bless You. TAKE NOTE....
Going to apply some of these concepts. Great video thx for keeping it concise.
Love love love this man. He has changed my life in the last 15 months. Something I have never been able to do on my own. Love you Dr and god bless u❤❤ anytine I wana try out or add something to keto lifestyle.... I come check here bfr buying.
I needed this confirmation, thank you so much Dr. Berg
It takes 2 to 3 months to adapt to your keto diet. In the meantime, listen to your body, and take the 1/2 hr. beauty sleep you deserve. Non-fortified and vitamin D3 before
bed. Thanks Dr. Berg.
Thank you great information!!
Thank you Dr. Berg. I am on the diet exactly 1 week and feel so much better. I lost 2.8 lbs. which is huge for me and my my post menopausal belly decreased 2". I joined your memebership which is a huge support system!!!!! Sometimes I can literally pass out for about an hour after I eat. I now know why and hope to cure that. Thank you thank you !!! Thank you for all you give.
Thanks for learning!
Love this perspective super interesting 😁🙏
Another great one content thanks Doc God bless you more watching from japan 🇯🇵
I used to nap everyday because I’d always feel sleepy and sluggish around 3-4pm. Ever since I started eating only breakfast & lunch, and less carbs in general, I never ever feel like napping or lying down anymore!
Love ur work dr berg. Keep it up
Thank you Dr. Eric I will follow this.I am doing lowcarcarb over three months already.
It is very annoying to feel sleepy after eating, especially when you want to complete many daily tasks, and it is dangerous for people who work on delicate equipment or whose work involves driving vehicles.
Dont eat much, your blood will mostly go to your digestive system so u will feel sleepy, eat but in more rations
Do not have carbs in the afternoon
Definitely have your smallest meal while working. Don't even think about the Buffet.
@@MemunaZahid carbs are literally one of the best sources of energy
Just dont eat too many
I'm addicted to that feeling because it calms my overreactive brain
Thanks for sharing 🙏
Thank you for the reminder, Dr. Berg.
Thank you Dr. Berg I take your gallbladder and Digestive formula and my gastrointestinal system has improved tremendously with IF. I eat once a day mostly. I have been following your program since July and became serious in August. Sugar is so bad for your health!
Well explained Dr, watching from Uganda
Thank you for this information this happen to me sometimes.
Super helpful video. Since I started IF and eat lower carb (not quite keto yet) and do more excercise / lose weight, I feel a lot better than before. After a little heavier meal very occasionally I notice the difference immediately, making me tired. Just going to keep at it and keep changing my habits for the better indefinitely.
@John Boyd I'm aware of that, my short term goal is not keto yet, it'll be a bit later on.
Overeating has always made me sleepy. My mama has a picture of me face planted in a bowl of spaghetti. The story goes she put me in the tub, dressed me, and I didn't wake up until before dawn (I probably smelled the coffee brewing...) For the girl that didn't sleep two hours straight until she was four, it was extrodinary. I am definitely more alert and active when I keep in check the amount I eat. But a huge portion of simple carbs knocls me out.
Thank you for the reminder that what and when we eat affects our lives.
That sounds like something else if you had intermittent sleep as a child and it was the only time it happened.
@@pimlico3225 I think she is saying she discovered eating things like pasta knocks her out and that started when she was 4 👍
@@slr5097 Yes, thank you. I read the same comment. A pattern of consistently erratic sleep can cause what she experienced, all I was saying. 👈
@@pimlico3225 That daytime sleeping is now referred to as "Power Naps" - IF they do not last too long.
It drove my spouse crazy because when I was dragging about 5 to 6pm after work - I could set an alarm for 15 to 20 minutes - and emerge re-energized to take on all the evening tasks awaiting me. When my spouse tried it - he would end falling into a deep sleep and wake up grumpy.
@@pimlico3225 If it is, and it's possible, I've now got the cure. I don't overdo the portion sizes, and I strictly enforce less than 20 grams of carbohydrates daily. It drives my mom batty I won't touch her low fat cottage cheese, nor her banana smoothie, or the spaghetti. But Im 133 pound lighter now, and I feel good too.
I started low-carb diet and intermittent fasting 5 years ago. It was hard in the beginning, then gradually the hunger and the craving became easier and easier to control. Along the way it turned up to be the easiest diet that I ever tried. You gotta need a long term commitment though, never expect instant result. I am now much more energetic and productive than the 5-year younger version of me 5 years ago.
Did you do zero carbs?
An earlier video said we should take vitamin d3 in the morning because it can keep us awake by interfering with melatonin.
I've started intermittent fasting long back after watching the Doc.
I can surely feel the energy and weight reduction although I haven't measured the weight but the difference is noticable.
He promotes the right kind info and self tried measures.
You're the best Doc.
Warm wishes and keep up the good work.
Thank you dr. B! I love your posts. I am 40 pounds lighter since Christmas 2020. 18/6 keto and OMAD is the best for me. Now my furniture doesn’t creak when I sit in it.
That's fantastic! Dr. Berg would love to hear about your success with Keto! Please use this link to upload your story:

Thanks brother ❤ love your videos ,, love from sweden Stockholm
Currently three weeks on the healthy keto diet as you recommended. And it’s true I still get tire after eating.
Thank you very much sir 🙏
Dear Dr. Eric Berg DC
Your advice is very useful, and I hope to translate the episodes into several languages, including Arabic, to spread the benefit among everyone and benefit from your precious advice
with my full respect

So basically.......if you're tired after you eat, don't eat. Got it.
Wow, very helpful!
I eat one meal a day at 11pm after work. People think I'm mad but I feel great.
I appreciate all the great information you've provided and I feel like a basket case because I don't get far on the IF because I feel hungry and a weakness...dizziness sets in...so I eat...I've been using protein drinks more but still get that sleepiness..I usually have about two hours or three in the morning before it sets in..then I'm dragging around and I've even fallen asleep in the car when I come out of a store.
Hope this video helps!

Wow, this just hit right on the nail for me. I am getting back into fasting, but I will also try the B1 and D3 before going to bed. I never tried that before.
Just started talking vitamin D&K before going to bed and it put me to sleep within an hour.
Thank you Dr B : )
Wow, this explains issues I’ve had for a while. I’ve been on Carnivore (BBBE) for 3 months and have cut out dairy, all sweeteners and no carbohydrates. In the past I always felt better when I didn’t eat in the mornings and could go until maybe 1:00 or so before getting hungry but if I eat early I’m always tired. So I definitely fit into this category being insulin resistant. Thank you Dr Berg!
Just what i needed
Hello!
I watch Dr. Berg's videos quite often with other similar videos. I do have science background however refreshing certain learnt things and adding new medical information through these videos can really make the difference.
Due to this habit of mine I am able to apply this knowledge in various situations.
Thanks to your good intentions in providing medical information from time to time to many people like me.
What does all this mean?
Sounds simple enough. 👍
Great Information! 👍🏼
Well explained! 👌🏼
(From India).
yes I can get tired after a meal. I have started C.V before and after my meal to help me. I am on very low carb so was puzzled. I have post menopausal symptoms and had a pancreatectomy after cancer diagnosis. I decided to spread my meal over four hours and that helps too
Thank you so much for this video. I've been keeping my carbs 0 to low and still feeling tired after eating. At times even nodding out. I have also however been keeping my protein high. Thanks to you I think I've found the culprit. I'm going to try lowering my protein just a bit. Thank you so much
Thank you so much for addressing this issue. I do intermittent fasting every day. But do crash a hour after eating and never really knew why. I do eat pretty much the same thing every day. Once a day. I been eating a large salad with healthy dressing and baked fish one day and the next day salad and .or boil shrimp and crabs. And for something sweet honey oaks cereal with almond milk.
almond milk is FULL of chalk...which lines your intestines blocking nutrient absorption
@John Boyd I like oat milk , is that a better choice?
@John Boyd thank u for ur reply . What is wrong with oat milk ? I thought it was a healthy plant based alternative to dairy.
Thank you Dr. Berg and Yes Yes I Do i get sleepy Great Info will try the 5 steps Thank you❤💌🙏😘🕊🙋👍👍🌺🌺❤🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Very Good knowledge. Dear Berg
Thank you, Sir. I love your videos, doctor, i do low- carb diet & yesterday made IF. By your advice to fight candida. There are a lot of sugar in our products, they cause brain inflammation. Always feel tired after meal. Love your channel, doctor, very helpful ,God bless you!
Thanks Dr,
Would love to be a test case for you. Totally committed to change, nutrition and exercise. I was a performance athlete but I let the spoils of “office life” get the better of me. I take zero medications, struggle to eat enough nutrition. Massive mental discipline….keen to see if I can return the favour for what I have learnt from your channel
Most Important Topic you covered. Thank you. I am from India
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it!
This is me. I wondered why I was so sleepy on Day 2 and Day 4 when I ate lunch, I fasted in between and felt great. It is a sleepy tired, like I just spent the day at the pool, not quite the same as a Thanksgiving-day carb crash. It seems like the Day 4 sleepiness is a little less than Day 2 so I’m glad to hear that it is going to get better.
I just realized that on both days I ate ground Turkey on my salad which had 23g of protein and 1g of fat. Also tryptophan!
I had this problem when I was young!
My D.O. said it was "alkaline tide", or something like that.
i have this after i eat carbs.....EVERY TIME...ive been looking for this video for years
Thank you.
Thank you Dr Berg.
Thank you Dr Berg
I get tired, brain fog, dry mouth and eyes, feels like my eyes are sinking into their sockets and a general unwell feeling in my body after I eat.
I'm addicted to that feeling because it calms my overreactive brain....
I just want to let anyone who’s reading this comment know. I wish you great success, health, love and happiness! ✨
GOD BLESS YOU ABUNDANTLY DEAR YOU ❤️ IN THE MOST POWERFUL NAME OF JESUS ❤️ AMEN ❤️ HALLELUJAH ❤️ SHALOM ❤️
U too... ❤️❤️
I've been on keto for years, and more seriously in the past 6 months. It took my blood sugar from prediabetic to normal and I lost 57 pounds. I gradually switched over to OMAD most days and that was an improvement. Despite this strict diet, I have extreme tiredness after meals that continues to wreck my life. Thanks for the advice. Here's how I am going to employ it. My plan for the next couple of days is to fast, with coffee and tea only. When I break my fast, I will take apple cider vinegar before meals, cut the amount of protein and fat in the meal, and take D3 and K2 before bedtime. I know I will be more productive and alert during fasting. It's the transition to eating that is the test for me. I intend to learn from it. I have 40 pounds to go and a productive life to reclaim. Wish me luck.
Hi, how'd you do? Did you try it?
Great Man
Thanks doc from Bangladesh ❤🇧🇩
Undiagnosed sleep apnea was part of my problem regarding this. Get a sleep tracker and see if your sleeping through the night if you wake up tired. I used to wake up exhausted and felt even worse after eating.
A sleep study confirmed severe sleep apnea. I was thin and didn’t know I had this problem.
Hey, I can relate. have u found a solution?
I have had chronic sleep apnea for years. My GF says I stop breathing over 100 times a night. I average around 3-4hrs sleep a night anyways so I'm a zombie going to work 12-14hrs a day driving truck.
I was getting less and less sleep the older I get and when I started keto and fasting last February I get even less, especially on the day I exercise. It's so weird.
Almost 2 months low carb and IF 16-8.
Wow i feel ALIVE again...
No more sleepiness and tired.
No more acid reflux
Much better energy
I'm skinny all my live so no need to be overweight to feel bad and weak.
Just one problem i wanna gain same muscle weight and whit 2 meals a day i think this is gonna be impossible for now.
Thanks.
Thank you Dr. Berg👐💞💕
You are so welcome!
I've been doing a Keto diet for about 5 years now & started to include I.F. for about 2 years now. I've been doing OMAD more often over the past couple of months, and now I'm experiencing extreme fatigue whenever I eat. I started taking ACV throughout the day, especially immediately before, during & after I eat, but still, very tired.
Intermittent fasting does work. At least as good as training, if not better. 3 months in, no training, but i'm still loosing weight.
This is my biggest problem!! I get is on low carb. No matter if it is broccoli or a steak .I always have to lay down after I eat.I fast.while I fast I am fine ! I talk to my old dr about it she had no answer. A nurse told me one time it was a drop in blood pressure when all the blood rushes to your stomach to digest the food ?? Maybe it just my kidney disease?
Lol 😆🤣 I just said this yesterday I don't like to eat much on 12 hour shifts
Because of it
BAM 🥱😴
I'm doing ketogenic and if omad for two years and I'm only sleepy after day shift when I eat.
That's after a fast of 23 to 24 ours.
Day shift starts at 05.00 till 15.00 😴🤐
And as you stated in the video it does seems that I have more energy when I'm not eating
Thank you so much dr. I wake up fresh in the morning but then after i have a cup of tea and 2 fried eggs i feel sleepy again.. I hope this helps me.. 😃🙏
Good info, didn't know high protein meals can make you tired. Explains why a plate of eggs & brats often makes me... 😴
I'm doing intermittent fasting, eating once a day & getting tired after eating, in fact I sleep like an our or 2 after eating however, it helps me because the food is the last thing I do for the day so I get to sleep early & wake up early. Thanks Dr Berg for all you do, God Bless you.
I need to eat once a day at night at this point as well because I fast until about 1-2 pm and literally pass out for 2 hours after my first meal.
@@mgm579 😂😂😂 that's cute, passing out right after your meal. I'm in the same boat and glad to know it's not a disease. I've started doing the same, saving all my eating for end of day's dealings so I can eat and pass out beautifully😅 The best sleeping pill there is.
@@mgm579 I'm in the exact same situation, even tried starting my digestive system a bit earlier with a smaller meal to break the fast... May I ask if you ever found a way to keep it under control?
@@virtue1495 omg… it’s not a disease! I just get sooo beyond sleepy that can’t do anything but collapse on the couch after a meal. Bone broth or some protein with no carbs helps to tie over until dinner without passing out 😂👍
Dr berg, Can u do a video about palm stearin? I want to know and understand about that. Thank you
I get tired even low carb.
Thank you dr I started Keto diet and stop please give me some tips to start again
I had that problem when I was starting keto and IF. Now it"s resolved. I have more energy until it is time to sleep.. I am not hungry and I notice I don"t imagine carbs I very much enjoyed.. Here in the Philippines. people are used to having Merienda or snacks 3 times a day and that consisted of 100 per cent carbs.
I understand that eating makes you tired but I get tired when I don't eat as well, just not as much. That's why I try staying fasted all day at work and eat 1 or 2 meals late afternoon/evening. Seems to work the best for me. I just wish I can have a tad bit more energy while working though.
Could you please write a book with much of the info you share here so we can have a reference guide to what Bittman do to help us and symptoms of low nutrients and how to solve them. It's easiest for me to find some answers in a book rather than look through all your videos. Love your content
Thank yuu
I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS
Hello Dr. Berge, could you please speak on ketogenic diet for diabetic patients and its associated risk for ketoacidosis.
Hi, I really appreciate your podcasts! I have a question about the timing of vitamin D. It seems that if we would like to mimic nature that we would take our vitamin D supplements between 9:00 a.m and 3:00 p.m.. What do you think?
Lol i remember this one thanksgiving, became so stuffed and was out for the rest of the day 🤣
