The Morning Mistake Doctors Say You Should STOP Making Because It Slowly Destroys Your Metabolism

Skipping breakfast might seem like a logical way to lose weight, because in theory, if you skip a meal you are taking in less calories. And breakfast is the easiest meal for many people to skip because most of us are less hungry in the morning than we are in the afternoon and evening.

But this is actually very far from the truth. Skipping breakfast is the worst thing you can do when you are on a diet.

You’ve heard before that “breakfast is the most important meal of the day,” but this is actually true because it supplies your body with glucose to keep you energized throughout the day and essential nutrients that are best to take in earlier in your morning. When you skip breakfast, you leave your body deprived of what it needs, and it will make up for this throughout the day by craving more food to replenish energy.

Eating a healthy, balanced breakfast speeds up your metabolism and can help you to feel fuller faster with the subsequent meals you eat throughout the day. The best breakfasts incorporate foods from multiple food groups, such as a meal with toast, eggs and yogurt. If you are not one to have a big appetite in the mornings, we suggest you start small. Maybe try a single fried egg, some peanut butter on toast or a cup of yogurt.
