Do you usually skip breakfast?
As indicated by a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, those who consistently eat this morning meal are less likely to develop atherosclerosis, a process of artery blockage that can result in stroke or heart attack.
As indicated by the research, individuals who consumed less than 5% of the recommended daily calorie intake at breakfast had twice as many atherosclerotic plaques compared to those who enjoyed a complete meal at that time of day.
Even though those who choose to skip breakfast are usually looking to lose weight or are hyperactive and want to save time by avoiding this meal, they often end up making less healthy food choices throughout the day. Omitting breakfast, by prolonging the fasting period, can generate stress on the body, leading to an increased metabolic load and triggering hormonal changes that contribute to weight gain.
So, when you start your day, don't forget to have a nice breakfast. Deal?
