I worked the midnight shift at a hospital for 18 months. That shift nearly wrecked my health. Took me years to recover once finally moved to the afternoon shift. Kudos to all the midnight shift workers. Much respect. 🙌🙌🙌

I worked at night for almost 4 years. After about 6 months. I put black tarp on my windows. This fooled my body into thinking it was night. I went to bed around noon, and got up around 8. My sleep was great. I recommend this to anyone who works at night. It will save your health

I worked the overnight midnight shift for 13 years..(I think about that now and smh) but I was young, in my 20’s when I started. I went up to 205 pounds, terrible diet. Had to trick my body into sleeping at a certain time in a dark room etc. That shift work is not good at all

I live in Mountain Time but spend 6 months of the year on Eastern time caring for my elderly mother. It probably takes me 10-14 days to adjust to the two hour time difference and fatigue from the airline flight. That seems like an exceptionally long time to me. Readjusting from Eastern to Mountain time isn’t as bad. I’ve been trying to keep my bedtime and wake time consistent which helps a lot once I adjust to the time change. Thanks for suggesting cherry juice. I will try it. Louise J

Poor sleep I have a huge desire for black coffee ( now Dr B’s spiced coffee with inulin and sometimes dried mushroom powder blend). I go for my BF oatmeal..but crave heavy in sweet fruit and nuts/seeds). I don’t normally eat after 7-8 pm, but on busy weekends with my partner…often have late dinner..9 pm or so. Since he isn’t plant based at all and likes to eat out, I’ll end up eating a pasta marinara or a faux meat like beyond burger or plant based meatballs with whatever veggies I can get. Avoiding oil eating out is a challenge. Those late evening dinners or any later evening and more calorie dense dinners wrecks my sleep. Lucky to get 3 or 4 hours. Relationships & social interactions are wonderful and necessary - but they can really complicate staying on track with healthy eating & sleep!! 😅

What exactly is the optimal range? Thank you Chuck and Dr. B for another interesting, informative, motivating session.

Dr B recommends cherries or tart cherry juice to help with melatonin before bed. What about his recommendation to avoid eating/drinking beverages within a 3 hour window of bedtime? Also can’t do the cherries if following low FODMAP. All this deserves a mention.

Hey Dr B!! You don’t have to take calls at 8pm to chat to Australia!! Make your Aussies take an earlier call… during your summer our winter, EST 6pm is AEST 8am! Easy. And if you’re in time zones further west, then even better. And Chuck, it’d be awesome if your podcasts were done later so we Aussies could join in live!! Hehe… just asking 😂

I would not drink 8 once of tart cherry juice b4 bed. I drink an ounce (shot glass size) b4 sleep and upon awake. Tart cherry juice is good for sleep AND joint pain.. and you don’t need a-lot ( after all it has natural sugar) buy tart cherry, not ocean spray or any juice that has added (not natural) sugar. I get mine from Trader Joe’s.

I haven't been able to catch a live show in a while, but would love if on a future show Dr. B or another doctor could offer any insight into whether drinking too much non-alcoholic or dealcoholized beer or other non-alcoholic or dealcoholized drinks is detrimental (I think non-alcoholic and dealcoholized are two different processes, but not sure). It has to be healthier than drinking the alcoholic versions, but are there still concerns? Similar question re: flavored sparkling waters, i.e. assume they are far better than soda, and worse than straight water, is that accurate and what are the issues?
