Postprandial sweating may result from excessive caloric intake. Consuming overly greasy or high-fat foods can trigger sweating after meals. It may also stem from yin deficiency or insufficient yin fluids; general bodily weakness can lead to kidney essence depletion, thereby causing spontaneous (pathological) sweating. Women with weakened constitutions following childbirth may also experience sweating after consuming foods rich in fructose.
