In this episode, I explain why eating high GI foods after 3pm can cause energy crashes, cravings, and weight gain—especially for shift workers. Our insulin sensitivity naturally declines later in the day, so making small, simple swaps to low GI foods can help stabilise blood sugar, keep you fuller for longer, and support a healthy weight no matter what shift you work.

You don’t need an extreme diet—just start with one easy change, like swapping white bread for whole grain, and build from there. Over time, this approach reduces cravings, helps control energy dips, and even leads to eating less because you feel satisfied longer.

Download the free Low GI Lifestyle Guidebook here for a full list of foods that support better blood sugar control and sustained energy during your shifts.
