Hey, with your current weight and height your BMI is 29.8. This classifies you to be in the overweight category. Being overweight and having insufficient calories or imbalance of nutrients in your meals leading to B12 or iron deficiency can be a reason for your lethargy or drowsy feeling.
Next Steps
Try to get sufficient sleep and include minimum of 30 mins of physical activity or meditation. Hydrate yourself while your studying. you could also use detox water to give you a refreshing feeling. Split your meals into 3 major meals and 2 snacks. Also check if you have any deficiencies
Health Tips
In foods, you can munch on handful of nuts including almonds, walnuts, cashews etc. Snacking can include high protein foods like a cup of hung curd with cut fruits and nuts, energy bar, roasted channa, roasted makhana, grilled panneer, seeds etc. High energy fruits like banana/ butter fruit/ chickoo can also be considered to sustain energy throughout the day
