    It is more common in spleen deficiency. In traditional Chinese medicine, the spleen is mainly transported, the main shengqing, and the main limbs, and after the food enters the stomach, it must rely on the movement of the spleen, which converts the subtleties of the water valley into qi, blood, and fluid, and absorbs the nutrients into the heart and lungs, nourishing the viscera meridians, and the limbs.

    If someone asks me, what is rejection? I'll be sure to tell him the full meaning! If someone asks me, what is mediocrity? I'll be sure to say, "What do you think? —Epigraph.

    When I saw this essay title, two huge words "vulgar" appeared in my mind, and a sense of joy spread to my mind. Thoughts poured in, patting on my shore, words colliding with each other, voices becoming more and more violent, "waves" rising higher and higher, crashing against the Berlin Wall formed by these four words, but none of them could break through. The dazzling sunlight was constantly shifting, and the shadows covering the "sea" were getting bigger and bigger, and I couldn't tell whether it was dark or blank.

    It successfully rejects all the mediocre words in my mind, what seems to be vulgar is not necessarily vulgar, what seems noble is not necessarily mediocre!

    Man is given the power to accept or reject from birth, some substance, or some spirit. Every time power is exercised, a certain "element" will inevitably undergo a qualitative change imperceptibly, whether it is slow or galloping? On the "surface" or "underground"?

    And what kind of "element" will it combine with to react, is it physical or chemical? But the only thing that is certain is that the result of the reaction will be the result of the new substance, now or in the future, and there is some kind of influence.

    I often feel sleepy after lunch, is it because the blood is concentrated in the stomach and away from the brain?

    Not really. Many people think that after eating, the blood of the whole body is concentrated in the digestive system to help gastrointestinal peristalsis and digestion, which will cause insufficient blood supply to the brain and make the brain lack oxygen, and people will feel sleepy, but this is not scientific.

    As the most important organ of the human body, the human body will give priority to ensuring the blood of the brain**, if it is really as many people think that the brain is short of oxygen due to the reduction of blood supply, then the person should feel dizzy instead of simply sleepy. Foreign studies have indeed found that the blood flow to the brain not only does not decrease but increases after meals.

    So why is there "food sleepiness"?

    This is mostly related to the endocrine status of the human body after meals. When a person eats a high-carbohydrate food, the blood sugar rises, which inhibits the hypothalamus from secreting an appetite hormone, which is low in protein hormones, making the person feel tired and drowsy.

    In addition, researchers in the United States found that the secretion of cholecystokinin may be related to drowsiness after meals, and the researchers tested the amount of cholecystokinin secretion and drowsiness scale scores of the subjects before and after meals, and found that there was a positive correlation between the two, that is, the more cholecystokinin secretion, the more sleepy people were. If the food you eat is too greasy, you will secrete a lot of cholecystokinin, which may also be the reason for feeling "sleepy" after eating.

    Sleep immediately after eating, because the stomach and intestines have to be digested, so a large amount of blood will enter the digestive system, so that it can fully secrete digestive juices, absorb and transport nutrients, so that because the total blood volume of the human body remains unchanged, the blood flow in the relative brain is reduced, which is the reason why patients with cerebrovascular disease can not take a nap for a long time. Because it is longer, the amount of blood is less, and the flow is relatively slow, so it is easy to form blood clots.

    As for having no effect on digestion, some people say that it is not easy to digest during sleep, which is unreasonable, in fact, in sleep, without any interference from the outside world, digestion can be carried out attentively. Because digestion mainly depends on the autonomic nervous system, entering the gastrointestinal system is the tenth pair of cranial nerve vagus nerves, and these nerves are not resting, if it is a rest, it is also alternate rest, such as sympathetic nerves and parasympathetic nerves are on duty in turns, but they sometimes take turns for a short time, even in a few minutes to carry out a shift, or even shorter, but there is also a slightly longer exchange, which can be changed at any time determines the body's ability to adapt to a variety of situations. If, once the autonomic nervous system rests, then your heartbeat and breathing will stop, isn't that dangerous?

    As for digestively reflexively transmitting excitement into the brain, which affects rest, this is also not a cause for concern, in the long evolutionary process, the body has fully adapted to these situations, and they will deal with these problems in an orderly manner, you don't have to worry.

    As for the fact that after sleeping, the metabolism of the whole body decreases, it is a fact, the energy produced after eating cannot be consumed, it will become fat storage, and over time it will become fat, and there is no need to worry, because digestion is a very long process, it takes a long time in the digestive tube, it takes about 4 or 6 hours in the stomach, and it also takes a while to the small intestine, and then it enters the bloodstream, and the excess calories are converted into glycogen, and then the remaining excess energy is converted into fat. For such a long time, it may not have turned into fat when we get up, but we have to do some activities, that is, cooking, mopping the floor also needs to consume energy, that is, some have been converted into fat, as long as we can move properly, the fat can also be turned into energy to be consumed, so the key here is not to eat too much, not to move too little, not to be able to eat during sleep.

    If you go to bed without waiting for the food to digest, it will hurt the body and affect the digestive function. Over time, it will induce diseases.

    Not good, sleeping after a meal is easy to have a stroke Doctor Yang Na of the Third Hospital of the Armed Police Force introduced that after people have eaten a full meal, especially when the amount of a meal suddenly increases, people are more likely to be sleepy and fall asleep, which will make the food full in the stomach stay for too long and affect the normal progress of digestive function. In addition, after eating, a large amount of food is in the stomach, and in order to better digest and absorb, the human body will increase the blood flow of the stomach and intestines. However, the amount of blood in the body is relatively fixed, so the blood volume of the brain will decrease, and the blood pressure will also drop.

    Therefore, after eating, you should move before going to bed to avoid strokes 1-2 hours after eating The stomach is the busiest Doctor Wang Guowei of Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine said that after food enters the gastrointestinal tract, it reaches the peak of absorption within about 1-2 hours after eating, and it can be completely emptied in 4-5 hours. When people have just eaten enough, it should be the time when they need to have a strong gastrointestinal function. However, when the human body is asleep, most of the body's tissues and organs begin to enter a state of "rest" with slow metabolism, while the gastrointestinal tract is forced to be in "intense work", resulting in an imbalance in some parts of the body.

    In the long run, it is easy to cause disorders of human digestive function and poor absorption of nutrients. For some people, it can also cause nutrient accumulation, leading to obesity. You can't lie down immediately after eating, but you can't do strenuous exercise right away, standing properly or walking slowly can be chosen.

    Sleep after eating, esophageal involvement Miss Zhang works in a foreign-funded company, and she only has an hour and a half of rest at noon, so in order to work better in the afternoon, she always takes a nap just after eating. Although I sometimes feel a little bloated in my abdomen when I wake up, I feel more energetic when I go to work in the afternoon. After a few months, she began to feel more and more unable to eat, her chest burned, and the little food she barely ate came up in bursts, and many times she forcibly swallowed the food to avoid making a fool of herself in front of her colleagues.

    She thought that she might be suffering from indigestion due to lack of exercise, so she bought some digestive drugs to take, but the effect was not obvious, and the food she ate still poured into her mouth from time to time. After a while, she began to cough non-stop, and the respiratory doctor saw a lot, but did not cure her cough, until one day, she went to see the stomach and intestines "dyspepsia", and the doctor found out that she was suffering from gastroesophageal reflux disease, and this persistent cough was caused by esophagitis caused by long-term food reflux. Because she always goes to bed after eating at noon every day, the pressure in the stomach causes the cardia sphincter at the junction of the stomach and esophagus to malfunction and close loosely, causing food to reflux into the esophagus and mouth.

    After that, she moved a little for half an hour after eating before taking a nap, and then after the combination of antacids and gastrointestinal motility drugs**, gastroesophageal reflux was finally cured, and her cough was also cured. Experts point out that gastroesophageal reflux disease is not only painful, but also may induce esophageal cancer. Nowadays, there is an increase in gastroesophageal reflux among office workers like Ms. Zhang, and they should be vigilant and should not take a nap immediately after a working meal.
