[106] - Night Shift - Part 2 - The optimal way to navigate the night shift

Text me what you thought of the show 😊You now no longer have to imagine unlocking the secrets to thriving on the night shift because you're getting advice from someone who's not just studied the science, but lived the experience. I'm Roger Sutherland, your guide through thenight shift, as we explore the crucial interplay between our bodies' circadian rhythms and the food we consume. With nearly four decades of night shifts under my belt and a certification in nutrition, I reveal why your 9 PM melatonin surge isn't just a sleep signal—it's a critical player in how your body handles insulin after dark. We'll dissect insulin resistance and its sneaky role in the night worker's diet, arming you with the knowledge to combat potential health pitfalls.Shift your overnight strategy into high gear as we lay out a game plan for eating, fasting, and sustaining energy when the rest of the world sleeps. Learn the art of timing your meals to align with your body's natural rhythms, discover why turkey roll-ups or a simple yogurt with berries might just be your new best friends, and find out the ideal post-shift meal to send you off to dreamland without digestive distress. As we tackle these topics, I also shine a light on the mental health aspect of shift work, emphasizing the need for self-compassion and mental well-being. It's not just about making it through the night—it's about thriving in your personal and professional life, every hour of the day.Support the show---------------------------- ANNOUNCING "The Shift Workers Collective" https://join.ahealthyshift.com/the-shift-workers-collective Click the link to learn all about it----------------------------- YOU CAN FIND ME AT Website Instagram LinkedIn Shift Work Health and Wellbeing Seminars One2One Coaching _____________________ Disclaimer: Roger Sutherland is not a doctor or a medical professional.
