Feeling sick after eating can be caused by a variety of factors, including eating too much, food poisoning, food allergies or intolerances, infections like stomach virus, digestive disorders (such as irritable bowel syndrome, gastroparesis, gastroesophageal reflux disease), gallbladder disease, pancreatitis, or stress and anxiety. It can also result from consuming foods that irritate the stomach, such as acidic or fatty foods. In some cases, the feeling of sickness is temporary, but if it persists or worsens, it might signal an underlying health condition that requires medical attention.

Some common specific causes include:

• Food poisoning from contaminated food, causing nausea and vomiting shortly after eating.
• Food allergies or intolerances leading to digestive upset.
• Digestive diseases like gastroparesis, where the stomach empties too slowly.
• Gallbladder problems causing nausea after fatty meals.
• Pancreatitis or inflammation of the pancreas.
• Stress or anxiety affecting digestion.

If feeling sick after eating happens often or is severe, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider to identify the exact cause and get appropriate treatment.
