SWIFt Study: Shifting weight in night shift workers

SWIFt Study: Shifting weight in night shift workers SWIFt (Shifting weight in shift workers) is a world-first study exploring novel weight loss strategies in night shift workers.

A collaboration between Monash University and the University of South Australia. Do you work at night and want to lose weight? You’re invited to be part of a world-first study trialling weight loss interventions in night shift workers. Shift workers, like yourself, are an essential part of our economy and community. In fact, almost 1 in 5 employed Australians are shift workers. But unfortunately, the nature of your work also puts you at a greater risk of weight gain, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. With the challenge of irregular sleeping and eating patterns, this makes traditional weight loss plans hard to follow. To help combat this issue, we are looking at diet plans that are flexible to the demands of working night shifts. Our SWIFt study will explore these diet plans as a solution to helping shift workers lose weight and live healthier lives. SWIFt is funded by the National Health and Research Council (NHMRC) and is a joint partnership between Monash University and the University of South Australia.
