For all my Night Shift Workers

4/13/2015

First off, I want to say that this has been my life for the past 12 years.  Night shift and rotational shift work.  It can be your biggest setback/challenge when trying to make changes to your body.  It is definitely not the optimal state your body should be in, but for most of us, work is required to pay the bills!  So what do we do about it?  Well, you have to make the best out of a challenging circumstance.  Maintain your diet, don't give into the midnight munchies attack!  If you get hungry, eat protein and drink lots of water.  The link posted touches on food and drink while at work.  But also, make sure you get enough sleep!  When you get home, get the room as dark as possible!  Studies have shown that sunlight is a potent stimulator of the circadian rhythm. Even if your eyes are closed, the sunlight coming into the room tells your brain that it's daytime. This discrepancy is not a healthy thing for the body to be exposed to and cortisol levels are increased.
