    I have been working on night shift for the past 10 years. I am 37 years old without any health issues.
    1 weight lifting workout 5 days in a weeks
    2 protein rich food
    3 small meals but 4-5 times a day
    4 Fruits
    5 keep taking breaks for your eyes and brain to relax
    6 most importantly, go to bed at the same time and leave bed at the same time even in weekends
    7 besides gym get into any sports you like
    8 complete your sleep 7-8 hours no matter what. Even if you have to sleep twice a day

    Another great video from Dr Pal and from my niece Varsha! The discussions, advice and management tips are very useful. I had been a night shift worker over two decades and also started at a wrong age! Although I am retired now, these tips would have been very useful then. I fully agree with Varsha that Sleep debt needs to be fixed first and then have a strict regimen of the right kind of food intake and exercise. I am sure this video will benefit many night shift workers and needs to be shared with all who have to work by night and manage the deviations from the circadian rhythm. Thanks Dr Pal and Varsha!

Wake up at 2pm and eat immediately or workout and eat big?. Then??? By 6pm eat or workout or eat again at 8pm then cycle the same???

    Hey Dr. Pal, why you are biased towards north Indians? You don't want them to learn here? You and your guests use lots of native language, i am not against your native language, but that creates a problem for people from North India to understand the content clearly. Nothing personal i apologise if this does not resonate with your way of working.
