The Case For Breakfast

Aug 25, 2011 at 4:39 PM by Sheryl Mooney


Decades of research show that eating a healthy morning meal does a body good.


Cardio Fitness: In one study, people who ate whole-grain cereal every day were 28 percent less likely to suffer heart failure.
Waist Management: Recent research shows that eating breakfast helps prevent obesity in children and maintain weight loss in adults.  How you ask? By helping you feel fuller all day – especially if you add in a little protein. In a 2010 study, men who ate an egg in the morning reported less hunger over the next three hours and consumed fewer calories during the next 24 than the guys who were given a bagel.
Food For Thought: Children who eat breakfast perform at nearly a grade level higher than those who do not. Recent studies have also shown that having a morning meal can sharpen memory for all ages.
Sugar Fix: Eating first thing in the morning helps regulate blood sugar, reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes.
