I'm working night shifts from 5:30 PM to 2:30 AM and I've been having some health issues because of it. I cant seem to maintain a healthy dieteither I'm trying to catch up on sleep or I just dont feel hungry at night. Because of the night shift, my routine's all over the place now. What do you think should be my ideal diet and routine? I'm noticing problems like hair fall, mood swings, and sometimes even weakness. Also, Im a pure vegetarian, so Id love some suggestions keeping that in mind. Looking forward to your advice!

Aim for 7-8 hours of quality sleep during the day. Use dark curtains and keep the room cool. Before shift: Have whole grains, protein (tofu, lentils), and fruitsvegetables. During shift: Opt for light snacks like yogurt, hummus, and stay hydrated with water or herbal tea. Post-shift: Eat a light meal with protein (vegetable soup, smoothie). Supplements: Consider Vitamin B12, iron, Vitamin D, omega-3s, and biotin for hair and mood support. Exercise: Incorporate light exercise after waking up to boost energy and mood.Staying consistent with sleep, diet, and exercise will help improve your health. Consult a doctor if symptoms persist.

View allWhere does fat go when you lose weight?
When you consume fewer calories or exercise, your body turns to fat reserves for energy. Once fat is metabolised to give energy, its byproducts leave the body through skin as sweat, through kidneys as urine and through lungs as carbondioxide as you breathe out.

I've been trying to work on reducing my fat and losing weight, so I started drinking lemon and honey with water. I'm not sure when the best time is to drink it. I usually have it after brushing my teeth and using the toilet in the morning. Is that right, or should I be drinking it before brushing and using the toilet? Can you help me figure this out?
It is generally recommended to drink lemon and honey water on an empty stomach, ideally before brushing your teeth and using the toilet. This allows for better absorption of the nutrients and may help in weight loss. So, it would be better to drink it before brushing and using the toilet in the morning.
