Text me what you thought of the show 😊

Ever wondered how your late-night snack might be throwing off more than just your waistline? Join me, Roger Sutherland, for a fascinating trek through the often-overlooked interplay between our circadian rhythm and eating habits, a journey especially critical for the heroic souls in shift work. With heartburn and indigestion lurking around the corner of every heavy midnight meal, I'm here to guide you through syncing your dietary patterns with your natural body clock. And for our female shift workers, fret not; we'll tackle the unique nutritional challenges you face with hormonal ebbs and flows, ensuring your meal plan supports your wellbeing round the clock.

Get ready to revamp your nocturnal noshing with my actionable nutrition strategies that keep the night shift from derailing your health. Discover why that comforting carb-loaded feast is doing more harm than good to your slumber and digestion, and instead, learn to embrace the art of light, energizing snacks that won't leave your gut working overtime. We'll also chew over the perks of early time-restricted feeding, a game-changer for blood sugar control and overall vitality. So grab your headphones and let's set the stage for a healthier you, one well-timed bite at a time.
