When I used to live in Hong Kong and went to lunch with the office staff the custom was to always eat vegetables first, then protein and finally rice or noodles after a pause. The meal would last an hour at lunch and at dinner it would last maybe 2-3 hours. And each dish would come at intervals. And I used to never feel sleepy after the meal. It got me thinking. Should we save carbs for last and give it a 15-minute pause? A small study from Weil Cornell indicates glucose levels were 29%, 37% and 17% lower at the 30, 60 and 120-minute checks, compared with when carbohydrates were consumed first. They might be onto something. Give it a try and see if your food Coma is eliminated. And eat slowly. That could prevent the sudden rush of glucose. For diabetics this might be even more useful to control blood sugar levels. Apparently your body requires an acid base to digest proteins and an alkaline base to digest starches so keeping them separate might make even more sense.
