When we wake up in the morning, our body would have been without food for about 10 to 12 hours. For children, it may be longer. Our body is similar to a car. It needs fuel to run. Our bodies must be fuelled several times a day so that we can function efficiently and carry out our daily tasks. In the morning, it is essential to refuel to provide the necessary nutrients and energy to get through the first part of the day.
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Do not miss it. Make sure you eat nutritious food. Studies have shown that adults who skip breakfast do not perform as well on memory tests. So, if your morning is going to involve short-term memory tasks, you are better off having breakfast. People who skip breakfast tend to become overweight. So, eat well and live well.
