How To Make A Low-Cholesterol Breakfast (9 Recipes)
According to this study of women, skipping breakfast increases the risk of weight gain and obesity in youth and adults, as well as high cholesterol levels, overconsumption, and poor blood sugar control.
What is the role of breakfast? There is evidence that skipping breakfast or eating less than 200 kilocalories can lead to obesity.” A very high percentage of obese people do not eat anything for breakfast “Breakfast is very important because it is the first thing we consume after a few hours of sleep and an empty stomach.
During the night, blood sugar levels (glucose levels) drop. So when we wake up, our body is empty and needs a supply of nutrients to restore blood sugar levels and give our body energy, which we get by eating a good breakfast.
Breakfast Activates The Metabolism
Taking food at the beginning of the day activates our metabolism, helping us to burn calories quickly and speed up the weight loss process. So, if you want to lose weight, you can’t skip breakfast for several reasons.
If we do not eat breakfast, our metabolism slows down due to the conservation of energy, because it anticipates hunger and prepares to store and reserve. Therefore, this will not contribute to the goal of weight loss; on the contrary, it may promote the tendency to gain weight.
Breakfast can reduce hunger throughout the day, making it easier to avoid overeating. Hunger builds up and when you skip breakfast, you get hungry later and want a quick fix and the food will leave you immediately. This can certainly lead you to choose foods that are less healthy and less adapted to your important needs, such as cookies, sausages, chips, or you eat more at later meals such as dinner.
In addition, prolonged fasting can increase your body’s response to insulin, leading to fat storage and thus weight gain. Studies (1) have shown that people who skip breakfast tend to be more overweight than those who eat a nutritious breakfast.
According to this study of women, skipping breakfast increases the risk of weight gain and obesity in youth and adults, as well as the risk of high cholesterol levels, overconsumption, and poor blood sugar control.
The Importance Of Protein In Breakfast
To have a healthy, balanced breakfast, you need to bring an adequate amount of 3 macronutrients: carbohydrates, protein, and fat.
However, recent studies* have shown that increasing protein intake at breakfast increases subjective satiety and feeling full throughout the day compared to a standard cereal breakfast, resulting in a reduction in caloric intake throughout the day.
In the above study, overweight women who ate a protein-sourced breakfast five times a week lost 65% more weight and 83% less waist circumference over eight weeks than participants who ate a carbohydrate-based breakfast.
When we eat a high-protein breakfast, this protein intake helps us avoid cravings for sweets like pastries, candy or sugary drinks throughout the day.
