Question:

Do you ever get cold right after eating dinner? Is it a health thing?


Answers:
When you eat food a large percentage of the blood from your body moves to the stomach area to pick up the nutrients to bring to the rest of your body. This leaves you feeling a little cold, it's perfectly normal and is just a sign that you are digesting your food properly : )

Your blood is heading to your stomach to help digest your food when you eat and that leaves the rest of your body with a little less blood flowing than it normally has to help keep you warm.

Probably nothing serious but you should always get regular health checkups and check your blood pressure.

No, but this bothers you...it's always prudent to check with a doctor. Maybe it's a thyroid problem.

yes, blood rushes to stomach/digestive system,
less blood in extremeties.
therefore you get cold.
normal.

i never have sounds like you might have already been sick though
that can happen or the food could be gross
