Why do I crash after I eat?

Crashing after eating can happen due to a rapid rise and fall in blood sugar levels. When you eat, your body releases insulin to help regulate blood sugar. If you consume a lot of sugary or high-carb foods, your blood sugar can spike quickly, leading to a subsequent drop in energy levels, causing you to feel tired or sluggish. Eating balanced meals with protein, fiber, and healthy fats can help stabilize blood sugar levels and prevent crashes.
