Perhaps the result of gluttony, Pepys said sadly (9)

I believe the answer is:

dyspepsia

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'perhaps the result of gluttony' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'pepys said sadly' is the wordplay.
'sadly' is an anagram indicator.
'pepys'+'said'='pepyssaid'
'pepyssaid' with letters rearranged gives 'DYSPEPSIA'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for dyspepsia that I've seen before include ""It gives me wind problem"" , "Heartburn" , "It was enough to make any man sick" , "Stomach problem" , "digestive complaint" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
