Is it really that bad if you skip breakfast? You might be telling yourself, \u201cwho has the time to make eggs and toast with avocado on top?\u201d In reality, there are many serious risks to skipping breakfast, ranging from your mood to obesity. Some even claim it can threaten your life to put off having a breakfast. Sacrificing ten minutes of sleep for a hearty <a href=\"https:\/\/blueskysupply.net\/healthy\">breakfast<\/a> is well worth your time for several reasons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moody<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Skipping breakfast makes you more moody than necessary. According to a 2002 BBC News World Edition article, a moody temperament was improved if they ate breakfast. Furthermore, 26% of people had a large change in temperament by changing their diet. This included making breakfast a daily meal. Elizabeth Somer, author of <em>Eat Your Way to Happiness<\/em>, she admitted to being a \u201cbreakfast avoider for many years,\u201d especially while working full time. When she stopped working full time, people said she would \u201cgain tons of weight.\u201d But she proved them wrong by making sure she ate a \u201csane breakfast and a light lunch,\u201d which led to actually losing 30 pounds. Losing weight and having more energy makes her \u201ca much happier human being.\u201d Her changes can be implemented, even as a full time employee with enough effort.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Slowed metabolism<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By skipping breakfast, you might be increasing your risk of obesity. In addition, losing weight may be harder for you, simply because you are skipping breakfast. There are many benefits to eating breakfast. For example, you are less likely to overeat by making breakfast a priority in your day. It also quickens your metabolism and increases your energy throughout the day. This makes sense because when you are sleeping, you are fasting. \u201cProlonged fasting,\u201d Leah Cahill warns, \u201cleads to increases in diastolic and systolic blood pressure, blood concentrations of insulin, triglycerides, free fatty acids and LDL-cholesterol, and to decreases in concentrations of HDL-cholesterol.\u201d In an attempt to correct this, you are more likely to make unhealthy choices as your cravings, leading to obesity. Of course, obesity comes with a slew of problems, such as infertility. Fasting for extended periods of time can be stressful on your body \u2013 even life-threatening. Clearly, <a href=\"https:\/\/blueskysupply.net\/vending\">breakfast<\/a> is worth implementing into your daily life.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Menstrual Irregularities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>College students are guilty of skipping breakfast in exchange for a few more minutes of sleep. This certainly can apply to many adults in the workforce, who may work late nights and have early mornings. Female students who skipped breakfast, according to a 2010 survey study by \u201cAppetite,\u201d had more menstrual irregularities than those who ate breakfast. Pain, irregularity, and even constipation was heightened by choosing to forgo breakfast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heart Problems<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is accompanied with a slower metabolism. But the problem is quite serious, apparently, according to a Harvard study evaluating eating habits and its influence for coronary heart disease (CHD) risk. In a group of 27,000 male healthcare professionals, they evaluated their lifestyle choices (such as skipping breakfast) and their health over 16 years. They were 45-82 years old at the beginning of the study. During the 16 years, 1527 CHD cases were diagnosed. In fact, men who skipped breakfast had a 27% higher risk of CHD than those who did not skip breakfast.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Slower Cognitive Development<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a Centers for Disease Control report, they found that children skipping breakfast had more trouble problem-solving. Students who ate breakfast, however, tested higher in standardized tests, missed less school, and were timelier to classes. This does not apply exclusively to children, though. As an adult, your body needs the energy to work effectively. Skipping breakfast is like going on a trip without a suitcase \u2013 it is a lot harder. While many see the problem with unhealthy food, the significance of eating <a href=\"https:\/\/blueskysupply.net\/healthy\">healthy food<\/a> may prove to be just as important.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think? Do you focus better by having breakfast? Do you notice a difference? The results seem to indicate a strong case for eating breakfast. While it\u2019s an easy meal to skip, especially in the beginning of the day, your mind and body will thank you later for taking the extra time for breakfast.<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for <a href=\"https:\/\/blueskysupply.net\/healthy\">breakfast&nbsp;options<\/a> for your Tulsa and Oklahoma City&nbsp;breakroom, call <a href=\"https:\/\/blueskysupply.net\/contact\/\">Blue Sky Supply<\/a> at (918) 599-9100&nbsp;for a free, no obligation consultation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You\u2019ve heard the famous saying: \u201cBreakfast is the healthiest meal of the day.\u201d But is that really true?
