The Food Chain - What do medics really eat?
Download What do medics really eat?
Long days, unsociable hours, a hectic and pressurised workload – the working environment for health care staff is full of challenges. Maintaining a healthy diet in those conditions is tough.
Two shift workers talk honestly about what they eat on the job, and get advice from a dietician.
Ruth Alexander speaks to Scott Christmas, who’s on his eighth year of overnight shifts, to Tom Gibbons, a paramedic, and to Dr Linia Patel, dietician and performance nutritionist.
