Breakfast Importance
Start Your Day Right
Eating a regular, healthy breakfast
does make a difference. Studies show it improves your overall health and
well-being, as well as your longevity. Unfortunately, too many people skip or
skimp on breakfast and suffer the consequences.
Those who skip breakfast have slower reaction times and are more accident-prone.
School children who skip breakfast have greater hyperactivity, irritability, and
anxiety; more disruptive classroom behavior; more tardiness; and a decreased
ability to concentrate and solve problems.
Eating breakfast has many benefits. It reduces fatigue and sleepiness in the
mid-morning hours; helps banish away the blues; improves concentration,
increases alertness, and helps one function more efficiently. Academic
performance is generally better when breakfast is eaten.
Studies have shown that those who skip breakfast are more likely to struggle
with a weight problem. Calories eaten earlier in the day are more effectively
utilized than those consumed late in the day. Eating a good breakfast generally
improves the overall diet of a person. Those skipping breakfast are more likely
to snack throughout the day.
So start your day right. Make time for a healthy breakfast. Don't leave home
without it.
