Is Breakfast So Important? Why Do We Have to Eat Breakfast?

Dec 21, 2022

What is the difference between eating breakfast and not eating breakfast? Many studies have found that people who eat breakfast have a total body intake of nutrients and can consume more calories, which helps to lose weight.

New York, NY (Merxwire) – We have been taught that breakfast is the most important meal of the day since we were young. Breakfast is substantial and can also replenish the energy and nutrients stored in the body. Not only that, but eating breakfast at the right time can also double improve weight loss.

Previous studies have found that people who eat a big breakfast are more likely to lose weight than those who eat a big dinner because the body will produce “Diet Induced Thermogenesis” when eating, which is similar to the afterburn effect after exercise. In the same way, it lets the body actively burn energy to digest and absorb food, and people who eat a big breakfast have a better thermogenic effect of food intake, which can help them lose weight.

For another reason, scientists have found that eating a big breakfast, and a small dinner can make people feel less hungry. According to experiments published in Cell Metabolism, a hearty breakfast can affect people’s appetite and hunger levels throughout the day.

A research team at the University of Aberdeen prepared three meals containing about 1,700 kcal calories for 30 subjects and conducted a two-month experiment. Every month, to compare the effects of a rich breakfast and dinner, all topics enjoyed a rich breakfast in the first month, eating almost half of the daily calories; in the second month, they changed to a rich dinner, also ate nearly half of the calories, and then undergoes sophisticated metabolic tracking by scientists.

Scientists found they burned the same calories, whether a big breakfast or dinner. However, after eating a big breakfast, the subjects’ appetites became smaller, speculating that this may make it easier for weight loss people to stick to their diet.

Since breakfast has so many benefits, what should you eat for breakfast? A healthy breakfast should contain four things: protein, whole grains, high-quality fats, and fruits or vegetables. Protein and fats can increase satiety and reduce unnecessary snacking later for easy bone and muscle health, while whole grains can add nutritious fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

Whether it is to lose weight or be healthy, correcting bad eating habits is essential. Regular and quantitative three meals, maintaining an everyday life, not deliberately skipping breakfast, and eating the right thing at the right time are critical to maintaining good health.
