There are reasons why some cultures include a "siesta" in their mealtime plans. Falling asleep after a big meal is natural. However what you describe doesn't sound like normal Thanksgiving day snooziness. Your BF may be suffering from food allergies. For me it was wheat. And just try to imagine a meal in America without some form of wheat in it. I used to be so sleepy I could hardly stand up after breakfast until I learned to eat a breakfast that didn't include pancakes, waffles, bread, toast, biscuits, sweet rolls or cereals. Coffee didn't help; it made the situation worse, in fact. Eventually I found versions of some of those items that didn't contain wheat but basically I had to depart from breakfast as I had known it. The same with other meals but they weren't as difficult. It would probably be a good idea for your BF to be checked for food allergies. It could be any food and most likely it's one that he eats a lot of.
Yes... your going to die..
I dont think that if someone falls asleep after eating, Im referring to a big meal, something could be wrong. It happens to me, I fall a sleep every after eating coz I get sleepy and nothing is happening to me. I guess its just a misconception and sometimes a coincidence when it happens just after you eat and sleep. It could be some other cause. Like a heart attack.
