Gut health, inflammation, and sleep quality in shift workers compared

Updated

Abstract

Night-shift work is associated with disrupted circadian rhythms and impaired sleep quality.

  • Disruption of the body's natural circadian rhythm can lead to reduced sleep duration and efficiency.
  • Altered gut function may occur due to circadian misalignment.
  • There is a potential increase in the risk of mood disorders, including anxiety and depression, among shift workers.
  • These cumulative effects can significantly impact overall health and quality of life.
