Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Especially if you need to lose weight.

In the morning, as a rule, there is not enough time for long preparation, so many are used to making do with a cup of tea or coffee.

But you shouldn't act so irresponsibly when it comes to your health first and foremost.

By skipping breakfast, the body cannot begin to function properly and remains deficient in nutrients, which are very difficult to replenish during the day.

The main benefit of breakfast is that it helps to properly structure your nutrition during the day and prevents overeating during dinner.

Based on the claims of Dr. James O. Hill, several studies have been conducted that have fully confirmed the benefits of breakfast.

The test involved young girls aged 9 to 19. And those who paid special attention to breakfast had no problems with excess weight.

It was also noted that women who did not skip breakfast consumed fewer calories during the day.

But it is worth considering that breakfast should be correct. Cereals and fruits are perfect for this role. They can not only saturate the body well, but also save you from overeating.

The ideal breakfast is porridge. You can add a little butter, berries or nuts to it. You can also prepare dishes from eggs, whole grain flour and plant milk for breakfast.

It is worth avoiding baked goods and sweets for breakfast, as they contain a large number of calories, which are subsequently deposited as fat.

The time of breakfast is also very important. You can't eat right after waking up and you shouldn't delay eating for more than two hours after sleep. It's better to start the morning with a glass of warm water and then start breakfast after half an hour.

During the day, nutritionists recommend dividing meals into three main meals and two snacks. The last meal should be 3-4 hours before bedtime.
