    Of course.

    The only thing that might be affected is your vitamin D which is obtained by exposure to the sun. However, it does not require much exposure to the sun for the body to produce enough vitamin D and a graveyard shifter does drive home when the sun is up.

    If you are worried about it, take a megavitamin. For that matter, taking a good megavitamin is good practice all around.

    I worked graveyards for 15 years and suffered no problems from it other than my neighbors waking me up in my sleep dagnabit!

    of course. you need iron, that's all. Iron tablets can be taken at night.

    of course? I agree with the other response, I dont see how that would affect it in any way..

    I don't really see why not. Anemia is iron deficiency in the blood, working a graveyard shift won't make it better or worse. See http://my.webmd.com/hw/health_guide_atoz/hw166955.asp
