Working all Night can Alter your Biological Clock Making you Sick
A recent study found that working three nights in a row can have a substantial negative effect on your health and increase your risk of developing chronic illnesses including diabetes, obesity, and other metabolic disorders.
The study, which was published in the Journal of Proteome Research, explores how the brain's molecular clock works. Consecutive night shift work can disrupt the body's circadian rhythm, which can have an effect on various physiological processes, particularly those associated with energy metabolism and blood sugar management.
Following are the adverese effects of late night work shifts-
1. Heart attacks: Working the night shift increases the risk of having a heart attack, according to several studies.
2. Fatigue: Working night shifts increases the risk of both physical and mental health issues. A crucial problem is circadian rhythm disruption, which increases the risk of weariness and restless nights.
3. Depression: Do you have to work shifts at night? You may experience sadness or other mental disorders, so be cautious.
4. Insomnia: Because working the night shift disrupts the body's normal circadian cycle, it can have a negative influence on health by causing irregular sleep patterns and insomnia.
5. Unusual blood sugar levels and weight gain: Working nights throws off the body's circadian rhythm, which encourages unhealthy eating and inactivity.
