CircadianFuel: Nurse Shift Nutrition

CircadianFuel is a mobile app that provides shift-working nurses with personalized, circadian-aware meal plans, smart snack recommendations, and real-time eating reminders. By syncing with work schedules and energy levels, it helps nurses maintain energy, avoid post-shift binging, and achieve fitness goals despite disrupted rhythms and limited time. The app tackles the unique metabolic challenges of rotating and night shifts in healthcare settings.
