In fact, there are many studies still showing that breakfast eaters tend to be healthier. The researchers also claimed that breakfast must be good for you and your child (Lise et.al 2008).

Myth 1

Is breakfast the most important meal of the day?

One of the reasons can be explained why eating breakfast tends to be healthier is the healthy lifestyle habits. People who eat breakfast also tend to eat healthier diets with more fiber and micro-nutrients. Besides, people who skip breakfast tend to have poor lifestyles.

However, the surprising truth is it doesn’t really matter whether you eat or skip breakfast. Some people even like to use intermittent fasting (IF) to lose their weight such as 16/8. This is involves only during 8 hour window and fasting for the remaining 16 hours. Basically, (IF) is an eating pattern that cycles between periods of fasting and eating and IF even is one of the world’s most popular health and fitness trends.

A lot of people claim that eating healthy breakfast foods is a ‘kick-start’ of metabolism for the day. However, it’s doubtful that eating breakfast can boost your metabolism. Studies also show that there is no difference in calories burned over 24 hours between people who skip or eat breakfast (Fumi Kobayashi et.al 2014). In the other words, there is no correlation between metabolism and skipping breakfast. Besides, other researchers even found out the evidence proven that skipping breakfast actually increased fat burning.

Myth 3
