What happens when ......I skip breakfast?
The inside story When you wake up after a long night's rest,your body has gone as long as 12 hours without a meal.That means you need fuel. More precisely, it means there's probably a shortage of glucose in your bloodstream. If you skip breakfast and head out the door with low blood sugar,your brain,which requires a steady flow of blood sugar to run effectively, won't be operating at full speed. You may feel queasy or jittery, or even less sharp-witted. Studies have shown repeatedly that school children who eat breakfast have better memories and learn more than their classmates who don't.
"Breakfast is important for keeping your appetite under control the rest of the day." says endocrinologist DR Suma Dronavalli. Most people more than compensate for the calories they miss at breakfast by overeating at lunch and dinner,especially foods high in saturated fat- the kind that plugs arteries.
Breakfast skippers are also more likely to snack on junk between meals.
