[261] - Magnesium v Ashwagandha for Shift Workers

A Healthy Shift

About this episode

Text me what you thought of the show 😊

In this episode of A Healthy Shift, I  break down the differences between two popular supplements: ashwagandha and magnesium. Both are known to support stress relief and better sleep — but they work in very different ways.

I explain:

  • How ashwagandha can help calm a wired mind
  • Why magnesium supports deep rest and nervous system recovery
  • Which one might suit your shift work lifestyle better
  • When using both could make sense

If you’ve ever reached for supplements after a rough run of night shifts or long days, this episode will help you choose wisely.
