I think its just a natural reaction. Babies sleep after being fed.

But I doubt you have narcolepsy.
You are probably eating too much or heavy foods.

People tend to feel this way after eating a heavy meal. Only eat when you are hungry. Drink plenty of water and stay active.

after a meal your brain releases a hormone called serotonin, it relaxes you and makes you tired.

its hard for your body to digest meat especially and will shut down your system(make you go to sleep) so it can do its job. Itsvery important to drink a full glass of water with your meal to help with digestion. Dont overeat either.
