Is it normal to want to sleep after eating?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes, feeling a little sleepy after eating is common. It can be more noticeable after a large meal or when you’re already tired.

That post-meal slump happens to lots of people. A big or rich meal can leave you feeling heavy and relaxed, and your body’s natural afternoon dip may pile on if you eat around that time.

It doesn’t mean anything is wrong, and people vary: some barely notice it, while others want a nap. Smaller meals or a short walk afterward may help if it’s inconvenient—but sometimes your body is just voting for the couch.
