Why We Need To Eat Breakfast


Why is breakfast the most important meal of the day? Lynn R. Perkes (2013) describes the benefits of eating a healthy breakfast in his book A Time and Season For Change: Personal Weight Management and Wellness System. Perkes points out how breakfast "provides your body with fuel and nutrients to start the day and lays the foundation for day-long and life-long health." Perkes continues by explaining, "Skipping breakfast is associated with a depressed metabolism, increased food consumption throughout the day, and is strongly linked to the development of obesity" (p. 27). This being said, we should plan ahead so we can be sure to have a healthy breakfast each morning.
