Night Shift Glucose Stability
Night shift glucose stability uses protein-fiber meals and limited refined sugar to blunt circadian-related glucose swings through the night wake period.
Night shift glucose stability keeps blood sugar from roller-coastering through protein-fiber meals, limited refined sugar, and movement breaks—not constant grazing on candy. Circadian misalignment already impairs glucose handling for many workers; stacking soda and pastries at 2 a.
m. worsens crashes and sleep after shift.
Pair carbs with protein and plan a modest post-shift bite if hungry before bed.
