Studies confirm that night shift workers have more prevalent diabetes, heart disease, and obesity due to abnormal hormone disturbances. But, the question remains, does the body "reset" itself after a time? More studies are required to answer that, but for now, the best advice Frank Scheer of Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School ,“It’s probably better to have a stable night shift schedule (rather than an) erratic, changing schedule.” Which means that for those who work the late shift, they should also play on a late shift, and keep the same schedule on weekends.
