Usually, the circadian rhythm or biological clock works in a 24-hour cycle. The biological clock relies on environmental time cues, such as sunrise and sunset, to maintain a daily routine pertinent to one’s surroundings. However, individuals who work overnight shifts typically do not have a normal sleep rhythm and do not utilize environmental cues. Those who alternate day and night shifts are also vulnerable to sleep cycle disruption and the disorders that may coincide with it. Night shift workers are susceptible to various conditions, such as:
- Inflammation
- An increased risk of cardiovascular disease
- Cortisol issues
- Hormone imbalance
- Adrenal problems
- Difficulty sleeping
Who Is Prone to Sleep Disorders?

- Military
- Casino
- Foodservice
