Meaning:

    “食物” means “food” and “昏迷” means “coma.” Translated as “postprandial somnolence,” commonly referred to as “food coma,” the term describes the tired, sleepy feeling that people experience after eating a big meal often caused by a rush of blood to the stomach and intestines during digestion.

    Example:

    A: 我刚吃了几块巧克力和曲奇饼干，恐怕一会儿要上演食物昏迷了。

    Wǒ gāng chī le jǐkuài qiǎokēlì hé qǔqí bǐnggān, kǒngpà yīhuìr yào shàngyǎn shíwù hūnmí le。

    I have just had some chocolates and cookies. I’m afraid of getting a food coma very soon.

    B: 不用担心，没那么严重。

    Bùyòng dānxīn, méi nàme yánzhòng。

    Don’t worry about that. It’s not that serious.

    A: 巧克力热量高，必须严加控制。

    Qiǎokēlì rèliàng gāo, bìxū yánjiā kòngzhì。

    Chocolate is a high-calorie food. I need to be extremely cautious when eating it.
