In this episode Audra discusses the critical issue of desynchronisation faced by shift workers, what it is and how it impacts their health.
She explains how chronic misalignment of circadian rhythms can lead to various health problems, including metabolic dysfunction, sleep disorders, hormonal imbalances, and increased risk of chronic diseases.
Whilst desyncronisation is inevitable for anyone working 24/7, there are strategies that can be implemented in order to help mitigate some of the deleterious effects that can occur, both in the short and long-term.

In light of events over the last few years, this podcast has to be the most profound interview I've done thus far.
As Daniel Roytas, a former University Lecturer, Nutritionist and Naturopath, challenges the long-held belief that colds and flus can be caught. He discusses the research and experiments that have been done to investigate the transmission of colds and flus, and how they have failed to convincingly demonstrate person-to-person contagion.
