Working graveyard shifts causes cancer...

"scientists suspect that overnight work is dangerous because it disrupts the circadian rhythm, the body's biological clock. The hormone melatonin, which can suppress tumor development, is normally produced at night"

sucks for them

And don't forget extended periods in front of the computer monitor...

*Notices time spent at the computer today*

Oh shit......!!! :O

Possibly the worst thing then has to be being up late on your computer, breathing air, eating food and washing it down with water.

Maybe thats Ted Haggard's belief...

That'd explain a lot.

Not the crack, but a lot aside from that.

Now does "at night" just mean when you're asleep or literally when the sun is down and the stars are out?

But they're saying, if ive understood correctly, that its the irregular times of sleep that messes with the bodyclock which in turn messes with that hormone.

I am sure if someone stays on the night shift and adjusts to it, then the days becomes their nights and their chances are that of a normal person. Lelatonin level is highest at bedtime, which suggests that one needs a regular sleep pattern.

If a person suffers from low melatonin, there are supplements available:
