Working night shifts can be difficult, especially when trying to keep a healthy diet. It can be challenging to choose nutrient-dense foods because of the unpredictable schedule and altered cardiac rhythm. However, eating the correct foods can support your ability to remain energised and attentive throughout your night shift.
Here are five meals which you should eat on during a night shift in this article to keep you alert. Dr. Rohini Patil, an MBBS and Nutritionist, specialised in the field, with over 8 years of experience, shows you how.
Nuts and seeds: Nuts like almonds, walnuts, and seeds such as chia and flaxseeds are packed with protein, healthy fats, and fiber. They provide a sustained energy release, keeping you feeling full and focused during your night shift. Additionally, they are easy to carry and require no preparation, making them a convenient snack option.
Carrots and cucumber sticks: Carrots and cucumber sticks are low-calorie, hydrating vegetables that are rich in vitamins and minerals. They offer a satisfying crunch and can be dipped in hummus or yogurt for added flavor and nutrients. These snacks are excellent for promoting hydration and providing a refreshing break during your shift.
