Night Shift Work May Cause Cancer?

I almost missed a post today… I’ve been busy manning the computer shop the whole day.

Anyway, my 11days off from work is almost over now. I’ll be going to work on the 22nd of December. Little adjustment on my side, specially we’ll be doing graveyard shift the whole month of December.

Which reminds me that there are news lately saying that working night shift causes cancer! There are artcles dated back to 2005, saying that night shift workers are more prone to have breast cancer. Though these are unproven then, there are studies being done about it and new results are coming out.

They did studies on nurses who work night shift compared to those who come to work at day time. The main reason noted was that the schedule disrupts the circadian rhythm, the body’s biological clock.

By the way my post for marhgil‘s contest is nowhere to be found on Google.. hmm.. same as with Charles…

Wonder what caused that…
