What Causes Sleepy Feeling In Afternoon After Walk?

Ok, I am 62, My height is 5 2 and weigh 127. I put in 7 1/2 - 8 hours of sleep each night. I take 2 breaks; in the am at work I walk outside 15 min and feel great when done but its the afternoon I seem to get sleepy after my 15 min walk. Within the next 20 minutes, I snap out of it. Is this something to worry about?

Hi,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
Thank you for the query.

Your symptoms are nothing to worry about. In old age this is common. In case you find it troubling, i would like you get your haemoglobin tested to rule out anemia, and other vitamin deficiency.

I hope this answers your query.

With best regards,
I find this answer helpful
