Graveyard shift causes cancer? I think
not.Like UV rays and diesel exhaust fumes, working the graveyard shift will soon be listed as a "probable" cause of cancer. It is a surprising step validating a concept once considered wacky. And it is based on research that finds higher rates of breast and prostate cancer among women and men whose work day starts after dark.
Also bad for you? Drinking a gallon of what you think is "coffee" and eating a bag of funyuns at 4am.
