BREAKFAST IMPORTANCE

New reports have come out about the necessity of breakfast for everyone. It is amazing how people do not realize that they have been sleeping for approximately 5-10 hours and their bodies have still been working the entire time to repair various tissues that may have been damaged during that day, yet do not replenish their systems in the morning or upon waking. According to a study by Harvard researchers, a study of older men found those who regularly skipped breakfast had a 27% higher risk of a heart attack than those who ate in the morning. In addition, in the journal Circulation (https://circ.ahajournals.org), an observational study was completed where researchers surveyed approximately 27, 000 men about their eating habits in 1992. Now other factors such as diet, drinking, and smoking where accounted for in the study. Nearly 13% of them said they constantly skipped breakfast and they all were highly educated health professions with a mean age of 45. Over the next 16 years, 1,527 suffered fatal or non-fatal heart attacks and 171 confessed to constantly skipping breakfast. That means that over 7% of the men who did not eat breakfast had heart attacks, compared to 6% of those who ate breakfast. In conclusion, the researchers calculated the increased risk at 27%.
