Breakfast is the main meal of the day. At night there is no significant physical activity but our body continues to consume calories to cover the functioning of the brain, kidney, lung, heart, etc. After all night without eating, the onset of daily activity needs an input of energy.
This energy must be used quickly to supply organs like the brain but must also be slowly released. It is therefore desirable combination of fruit (monosaccharides and disaccharides)) and bread or cereal (polysaccharides). Dairy products provide protein and ensure the necessary daily amount of calcium.
Also contain vitamin A, D and B vitamins. If you eat a good breakfast we will have enough energy for optimal physical and mental performance throughout the morning. It has been shown that children who come to school without breakfast perform less well than their peers that if breakfast.
And the same applies to adults. If you do not eat breakfast are more likely to eat fattening foods such as cakes or buns industrial, chips, nuts, etc.. Several studies have shown a higher incidence of obesity among people who skip breakfast.
