內容簡介 We were never built to live against the clock. Yet millions do-nurses, medics, factory workers, police officers-keeping society awake while their biology begs for rest. The Shift Worker's Paradox is their story, told with scientific clarity and lived truth. This is where biology meets exhaustion. Where compassion collides with the circadian system. Where survival depends on understanding what constant disruption does to the body-and how to fight back. Through vivid vignettes and accessible science, The Shift Worker's Paradox reveals how shift work scrambles internal clocks, distorts metabolism, and accelerates aging-and how small, rhythmic interventions can begin to repair the damage. From light exposure and nutrient timing to adaptogens, precision supplements, and pharmacologic "nudges," it offers evidence-based, deeply human strategies for those fighting fatigue at 3 a.m. and chasing sleep at noon. Empathetic and urgent, The Shift Worker's Paradox reminds us that biology is not negotiable-and that resilience isn't built through willpower, but rhythm. For every person who wakes when the world sleeps - this is your lever, your rhythm, your recovery
