Why is it important to have breakfast in the morning?
In: Biology
I don’t know what others are talking about but if I don’t eat breakfast and I am doing physical work I feel quite shitty till my next meal. I would feel dizzy, nauseous and weak. Even if I don’t do physical work, I would still feel like that but on a smaller scale.
So for me breakfast is indeed the most important meal of the day.
Besides I would take dietary advice with a grain of salt considering conflicting information and evidence as well as advice full of ideology and agenda.
I was watching an expert talks video on yt featuring a diet expert. Half of the shit he was saying was him being dismissive and snobbish. The other half was him saying shit that was easily disproven. He was talking about the blue zone, a list of areas with a lot of people above 100 years of age. He was claiming that they had basically a vegetarian diet and that diet allowed them to consistently live for a long period of time. Unfortunately Okinawa people aren’t really vegetarians. They love pork and eat lots of it. Only for a period of time after WW2 where a lot of pigs were lost did Okinawans drop their consumption of pork. After a couple decades consumption of pork increased once again. Not to mention diet is only one of the factors affecting health. Mental and physical stress are one of the most important factors in body health.
Lastly, even scientific results need to be taken with a grain of salt because in most cases they aren’t really scientific results. They are more assumptions or the opinion of a scientist than a proven fact. The reason for this is because it is difficult to actually do large large scale tests around these assumptions. It is also difficult to isolate the factors influencing physical health.
