Food Coma or Lethargy after meals
As above, been experiencing food coma's after meals and has been impacting my lifestyle/work/motivation to do work or live life...
Have tried so many different options, diets, dogma, all the recommendations (i.e. balanced meals) and did not work out...
And to recover from it... i have to usually wait for hours and hours... and have to stay in the lethargic mindset...
Does anyone experiences this issues...? (I understand forums/online reads does say something similar... but does not usually last for so long)

recently I've been looking at ayurveda, which tries to balance the body by first ascertaining the body type, then suggesting the foods required to bring it into balance. So it isn't a one type fits everyone system, which most diets seem to attempt to be.
there are all kinds of online quizzes. If you think it might help it could be worth you going to see a practitioner and getting an accurate diagnosis (although both my wife and I got the same answer as from the online quizzes.)

Hi David, thanks.
Finally... a response regards to one of my most painful topic.
I read about the topic once. Which attempts to "balance" whatever that a person's body is lacking of.
just that... my whole bland simple plant food diet now (for quite some time) may not be able to gel into this...

Pleasure, and I hope it will be useful.
You know, I completely get that you are walking a tightrope already, but you can examine ayurveda without actually changing anything.
At some point, you might give it a try by, say modifying the doshas using herbal tea, for instance, and get into it very gently.
@DavidEss
to be honest, I took some time to re-read again. (kinda briefly)
I saw some of the teas and diet recommendation
however the teas, herbs recommendation are kinda costly to get them shipped over to singapore.
diet wise... I am already at a kinda bland diet
whole food plant based... with occasionally cinnamon, nutmeg, turmeric.
by the way... mine was categorised as vata (more dominated), kasha
