Brief Summary: The aim of this pilot study is to investigate the acute impact of diet quality modification during night work on 24-hr glucose variability (GV) and heart rate variability (HRV) in healthy free-living employees.
Detailed Description: An increasing body of data reports deterioration of cardio-metabolic health in shift workers. For example, large scale meta-analyses have reported shift workers to be at increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and of experiencing a coronary event, compared to day working employees.

Shift work causes complex changes in physiology (desynchrony of circadian rhythms) and behaviors including activity, sleep and eating patterns. The importance of meal timing is becoming increasingly recognized in both chronobiology and nutrition fields, with emerging awareness of 'chrono-nutrition', the interaction between nutrition and circadian time.

Given the importance to the economy of a healthy aging workforce, and the increase in shift work prevalence, it is important to establish if diet modification can reduce the health disparities between shift and day working employees.
