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!

View allI'm thinking about taking vitamin E at night, but I'm not sure if I should take it with milk or just water. Which one would actually be more beneficial for me?
Taking Vitamin E with milk may provide better absorption due to the fat content in milk, but either method should be effective. Just remember to take it with food that includes some healthy fats for optimal absorption.
