Remember that phrase, “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”? Well that phrase is not just some old saying,it is a true statement backed by research. Numerous studies have found that eating breakfast is linked to better health, which includes better memory and concentration. Breakfast lowers level of the bad LDL cholesterol and lowers chance of getting diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and obesity. Without breakfast, you can throw off your entire body’s system. Your body needs nutrition so that it can produce more of the blood sugar needed to make both your brain and muscles function at their best. It has also been found that, on average, people who eat breakfast are thinner than those who don’t. That could be because eating foods with protein and fiber in the morning keeps your appetite in check the rest of the day. You can speak to a medical professional and they will give you some ideas of what type of nutrition would best suit you. Use Cosmo Insurance’s Doctor’s search by clicking here .
