I get that feeling also whenever I'm fasting in Ramadan.

I think the main reason for that is because your digestive organs free up some of the body's energy that is required for digesting a heavy meal.
The following elaborates on the same answer that I gave (continued at the link below):
Quote:During fasting, we rest our system from the constant onslaught of food stuffs. We usually think of food as giving us energy, so it can be a new way of thinking to understand how the food we eat actually requires energy. Digesting, assimilating and metabolizing--these activities require a great deal of energy. It is estimated that 65% of the body's energy must be directed to the digestive organs after a heavy meal.
Free up this energy and it can be diverted to healing and recuperation. It can detox and repair cells, tissues and organs, eliminating foreign toxins as well as the natural metabolic wastes (which are also toxins) produced even by our healthy cells.
