Why is it important to have breakfast every day?

Answer 1

After an overnight fast, breakfast is important to increase blood glucose levels and to jump start metabolic processes. There has been an epidemic rise in being overweight and obese in the last couple of decades, and part of the explanation for that is the tendency many people have to skip the most important meal of the day. There is nothing wrong with doing some exercise before breakfast in order to burn fat reserves, but there is a lot wrong with skipping breakfast (for example, by permitting yourself to get very hungry, you will tend to eat too much later in the day).
