Top diet tips for night shift workers

Last Updated on June 19, 2019 | RD, Payal Banka (Registered Dietitian) 149 Comments

Some of us like to be awake late into the night. At other times, you may be lie awake watching TV, chatting, reading a book or just finishing extra work from office or school. Many people work the night shift and their lifestyles are adjusted accordingly. These top diet tips for night shift workers will save them from many health issues that they might be prone to.

A lot of people are fascinated with the idea of sleeping all day long and being awake at night. But this may actually stress out your system, especially if you have a two-day weekend. For 5 days you tell your body that night is the time for work, don’t get sleepy and then suddenly on the weekend you want to sleep in the night. Your body will not be able to understand this and it may lead to several health problems such as:-

  Insomnia and sleep disorders
  Mouth and stomach ulcers
  Increased stress leading to heart ailments
  Increase in accident rates
  Increase in mental stress, fatigue and tiredness

Some people succumb to cigarette smoking and alcoholism to cope up with the increasing stress and to remain awake through the night. They compromise health and a lot of  other things to adjust to this routine. Stress may lead to weight gain and early ageing signs on the face if you are not able to handle it well.  Night shift may affect a person’s health, lifestyle and social relations as well.

I believe if you take certain measure towards health, all the other factors are in your control and you can manage them well. These tips for  night shift workers will prove to be useful in improving your overall health and correcting lifestyle.

Diet tips for night shift workers 

1] Dinner – Normally a person would end his day by eating dinner. But for  those on night shift,  the cycle starts with dinner.

– If your shift start from 7 pm onwards or later, you should not have dinner late to compensate. Instead have your dinner and  then leave for work.

– If your shift starts at 4.00 – 5.00 pm , then have your dinner at around 7.30 / 8 .00 pm. Don’t wait to get home and then eat.

The most important tip for night shift workers is that your dinner timings are crucial.  Many people avoid dinner before the shift to stop from feeling sleepy or heavy during work hours.

Eat – lighter dinner items like  brown rice with veggies and dal , idlies with chutney / dosa / utappam / only phulka instead of oily chapatis / puris, with salads and veggies / vegetable daliya / vegetable khichadi. Veggies are very important to avoid acidity.

Avoid  – Fatty food , fried foods like samosa , kachori, puris, potatoes and excessive sweets and desserts. Avoid starchy foods. These will leave you heavy and bloated and sleepy, and a few hours later they would provoke more acid formation leading to acidity.

2. Hydration –  Many people take up to drinking countless cups of tea and coffee to remain awake and active through the night. But this is another habit that is detrimental to your health. Hydration is very important, keep sipping some liquids every 30 -45 minutes and you will never feel sleepy.

Drink –  Nimbu paani / lemonade , coconut water , green tea and herbal teas , vegetable soups , apple juice , carrot juice , beetroot juice and buttermilk. Flavoured milk is also a good option.

 Avoid – Tea and coffee in excess. 1/2 cup once or twice is fine, but not more than that. Especially if you have not had a proper meal that day. It may lead to acidity, insomnia, and restlessness.  Avoid excessive aerated beverages and cold drinks.

3] Snacking at night – When hungry at night, keep some roasted nuts like almonds , soyabean , pumpkin seeds , flax seeds and peanuts handy. These are healthy snacks and will not lead to weight gain and will prevent you from overeating. Roasted channa is another healthy option. You can also keep some murmura / kadlepuri / puffed rice handy and have a bit when hungry.

If you are very hungry , choose poha and upma from the canteen over pizzas, burgers or wada pav.

4] Antioxidants – Antioxidants play a very important role in the life of those people who work in night shifts. Include foods with vibrant colour like red (tomatoes , carrot, strawberry, red cabbage, etc ) green (green leafy veggies) yellow and orange (lemons , orange, pumpkin, carrot) and berries and citrus fruits. Antioxidants have various health benefits specially for the night shift workers.

What to do on reaching home from night shift?

– If you reach home at midnight or a little later like 2.00 am,  don’t immediately  go to bed. After reaching home drink lukewarm water and lemon or a glass of warm milk , change  up and then hit the bed.

– If you reach home in early morning hours  like 5.00 am or later, have a bath, wear light clothes have a small meal  poha / upma / corn flakes or wheat flakes with a glass of milk and then hit the bed.

What to do when you wake up ? 

– After you have slept for 6-7 hours , wake up and have a round of exercise. You can choose walking / jogging / or even a gym workout or activity like swimming / skating  / table tennis / lawn tennis or other  if you don’t have that kind of time or options,  then simply do yoga and some stretching and warm up exercise at home.

Here is a diet plan for weight loss for Indian night shift workers !

Hope these diet tips for night shift workers will be of benefit to you.

      Hi Mahesh ,

      the acidity is because of no rest . after coming back from work , you hould have food and sleep. and after you wake up, you can go to gym , this will really help

      atleast 6 hours of sleep is necessary or ypu will detoriate your health . you can sleep in 2 parts . wake up at 10.30 have your meal and then sleep again . if you are sleeping on empty stomach at 6 am , thhat may be a reason you dont get more sleep . start having a meal at 6.00 am after returning and then go to sleep .

      ya the shift timings are worst . he really needs to exercise. can he do that just after reaching home ? or if he is really sleepy , he needs to work out in between his work schedule , like in his breaks . it is very difficult to manage such lifestyle and will lead to health issues .

      rotational shifts are harmful for the body . the only advice i can give you is make sure you sleep for atleast 7 hours at a stretch

      Hi, Thanks for reading at dietburrp. weight gain is a tricky process. you need to balance with calorie intake while making sure that the calories comes from healthy protein foods. the diet chart mentioned in the above article – https://www.dietburrp.com/indian-diet-plan-for-weight-gain/ is a perfect way to provide healthy calories to your body.
      you can follow the tips on how to gain weight from the article – https://www.dietburrp.com/how-to-gain-weight/
      It is important to understand that strength training is necessary to gain healthy muscle weight, so combine a 40 mins routine of exercise with the diet to achieve best possible results.

        I was 96 and now I am 99.
        I suspect that it’s because of the night shift.
        My Shift generally start in the evening.
        I am ready to do any diet and work out to reduce fat. I am targeting for 78 KG by Aug 14

          Hi Venkat ,

          im surprised that you are gaining weight instead of losing .. Try changing the pattern completely and it should help .. you need to be more regular in your work out .. do 6 times a week . and other than this , you need to have small 15 mins sessions of walking , 3 times during the day or night , whichever is convenient to you . instead of the 3 large meals you need to munch on small small meals every 3-4 hours .. check it here – https://www.dietburrp.com/diet-plan-for-weight-loss-for-indian-night-shift-workers/

    I had a perfect and a healthy body before I met with an accident..After accident I gradually started gaining weight. My weight before accident was 55-60 k

    I work in a call center since last 10 years and work in rotational shifts..Your article for people working in night shift was very helpful..

    Please help with a weight loss program so i can lose weight quickly.

    I tried HerbalLife but it was a waste of money and didnt work on me.

    Hi Payal,

    I recently stumbled on ye blog searching for night shift diet and i absolutely love reading ye posts. They are sensible and easy to understand. Tonight is my first night working night shift from 11pm to 7pm and before that i do another job from 6pm to 9/10pm (i work at a restaurant so indefinite working hours; depends on the reservations). So majorly, my jobs involve being standing and moving around. I stay in New Zealand, so I’m not able to follow the indian diet all the time, can you help me figure out at what time should i have my meals?? and what should i consume to lose weight?? need to lose atleast 10 kgs by start of march and also when to implement walking routine??

    MY STATS:
    Age:23
    Wgt: 80
    Ht: 5’4

    What i usually eat:
    Breakfast: Amla juice with lukewarm water
    Cereals with cold milk and one banana with a cup of tea

    Lunch: i don’t get time to make a wholesome meal, so sometimes its an omlette/burger/sandwich/noodles

    dinner: wholewheat roti or rice with a sabzi or curry

    Please help me. I would really appreciate it

    Thanks

      Hi,

      Thanks for reading at Dietburrp and thnx for all the compliments. You need to include small frequent meals in your plan , Can you carry fruits ? have a fruit every 2 hours to fill in the gaps and also include some green tea in your routine. avoid burger and sandwich in your lunch and have more of egg white omlettes with brown bread and milk and cereals. wheat noodl;es if possible or wheat pasta is good too . DINNER IS OK .. HAVE A GLASS OF LUKE WARM WATER WITH LEMON 2-3 TIMES A DAY .
