yes- the reason is because turkey contains L-tryptophan, a necessary amino acid with documented sleepyness as a side effect--YUM

A turkey sandwich, no I don't get sleepy. A huge turkey dinner, ala Thanksgiving with all the trimmings, yes, probably because I spent all morning in the kitchen cooking the meal then ate entirely too much. LOL

Yes,tryptophan is why. Ever wonder why everyone fell asleep during the ball games after thanksgiving dinner?

The diversion of blood to the digestive system causes the sleepiness.

No, I only eat a moderate amount at occasions that warrant this, and it does not make me too sleepy if ever.
