Why night shift workers eat differently: a study on hunger and food choices

NCT ID NCT04468672

Summary

This study aims to understand why night shift workers have a higher risk of obesity by comparing their eating behaviors, hunger levels, and fullness signals to those of day workers. Researchers will measure how much food people eat, their body's hunger hormones, and their feelings of hunger before and after meals. The goal is to gather knowledge that could help design better health strategies for shift workers in the future.
