Daytime meals can help regulate bloodstream glucose levels in night shift workers

What are the effects of eating during the nighttime instead of the daytime? New research, focused on a simulation of night shift work, may hold implications for people eating at atypical times - like those experiencing jet lag, circadian rhythm sleep disorders, or who tend to sleep late during the weekends.

Daytime meals may reduce adverse metabolic effects associated with night shift work

A small clinical trial supported by the National Institutes of Health has found that eating during the nighttime—like many shift workers do—can increase glucose levels, while eating only during the daytime might prevent the higher glucose levels now linked with a nocturnal work life.
