Did you skip your breakfast again today? Never mind if you did for it doesn't really matter. That's right! Unlike what your mother, friends, colleagues tell you, breakfast isn't really the most important meal of the day. We tell you how:
Myth 1: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
Breakfast isn't the most important meal of the day, just one of the important. If you regularly overdo it on pancakes and waffles and muffins and more, it's better to skip it than gorge.
Myth 2: Breakfast makes you *~sMaRtEr~*.
The whole breakfast-makes-you-do-better-on-tests thing is a bunch of bull as the jury is yet to be out on this.
Myth 3: Breakfast kickstarts your metabolism
In truth, breakfast doesn't significantly spike your resting metabolic rate. Working out physically burns more calories than just eating breakfast alone.
The Bottom Line: If you wake up hungry, eat. If your appetite doesn't kick in until later, don't force it or beat yourself up.
