Shift work disrupts your body’s natural rhythms, increasing your risk of fatigue, poor sleep, and long-term health issues. In this episode, I outline three supplements that can help support your physical and mental performance as a 24/7 worker.
What’s in This Episode:
• Why Vitamin D matters for shift workers
How low sunlight exposure affects your sleep, immune system, and mood — and how 2,000 IU daily can help restore balance.
• The role of Omega-3s in brain and body health
Why 2g of EPA/DHA daily reduces inflammation, supports focus, and protects long-term cognitive function.
• Creatine Monohydrate for mental clarity
Often overlooked, 10g of creatine a day can reduce mental fatigue — especially helpful for women working irregular shifts.
