We’d like to remind you of the adage you’ve probably heard a gazillion times – Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Here’s why:
- Breakfast is key to a healthy life including maintaining your ideal body weight.
- Eating breakfast jump–starts your metabolism which gets your body burning calories and fueling your organs, brain, muscles, etc. Your metabolism works best when fueled by small meals every few hours, and when you wake up in the morning, you haven’t eaten for about eight hours. Your metabolism is on "slow" until you eat. If you don’t eat breakfast, it stays on slow.
- People who skip breakfast tend to eat more throughout the day and tend to gain weight more easily.
- People who eat breakfast have higher energy levels.
- Eating breakfast boosts your brain power –– memory, concentration, problem solving skills. Kids who don’t eat breakfast don’t learn as well at school and grown–ups who don’t eat breakfast can’t think as well at work.
- Skipping breakfast can make you feel restless, irritable and lethargic, while eating breakfast can boost your energy levels throughout the day.
