SKIPPING BREAKFAST.

 

You all would have heard the century-old adage that says breakfast is the most important meal of the day. But how many of you follow this? In an attempt to cut down the net calorie intake and fulfilling our dream goal of being slim, a major proportion of us have a tendency to skip breakfast. There is no disagreement that this will yield results, but only very temporary ones. The adverse effects of skipping breakfast are:-

Affects Your Heart.

First and foremost, the bad effect of frequently avoiding breakfast has increased the susceptibility to hypertension. Nearly 27% of the people who skip breakfast are prone to heart attacks when compared to those who have their regular breakfast. This, in turn, leads to the clogging of arteries, the development of chronic cardiovascular health issues as well as stroke an increase in blood sugar levels, etc.

Badly Affects Your Energy Levels as well as Mood.

As per the journal “Physiological Behavior”, skipping breakfast has a great impact on mood and energy. It has been shown that people who completely avoided taking breakfast have utmost fatigue levels and fewer memory skills. Whereas eating improves cognitive function which is related to test grades as well as memory, so taking breakfast is a smart thing.

Increased Risk of Type-2 Diabetes.

Women are usually prone to type-2 diabetes as they are the ones who frequently avoid taking breakfast because of their busy life. Women who do not eat breakfast on an average of 0 to 6 times a week are at higher risk of increasing this type of diabetes when compared to those women who have their breakfast.

Irregularities in Menstrual Cycle.

This is the common problem most women face today and this is also common in college students who used to skip breakfast regularly. It also includes painful menses and irregular menstrual bleeds. They also continuously suffer from constipation.

Affects Metabolism.

Breakfast is an important meal that gives a boost up to your metabolism daily as it is the first meal of the day. This helps in increasing your energy levels throughout the day to perform physical activities. But, avoiding it puts off your energy and you will not be able to perform your regular activities properly which in turn leads to several other issues.

Increased Weight Gain.

People usually skip their breakfast to lose weight. It is just your imagination that you lose weight but when it comes to reality and according to a study conducted, people skipping out on breakfast have higher chances of gaining the weight rather than losing the weight. Avoiding breakfast peps up the craving for fatty as well as sugary food. In addition, being hungry makes you eat whatever you come across during the day i.e. your intake of foods becomes more and you will end up exceeding the daily recommendation and finally leads to weight gain.

Increases the Risk of Cancer.

With the mentioned weight gain problem above, obesity or overweight is again a big problem and leads to increased risk of cancer. This is according to research conducted. Especially women face this issue.

Causes Migraine.

Skipping breakfast or meals dips your sugar levels which in turn prompt the release of hormones that can compensate the glucose levels that are low. This, on other hand, increases your blood pressure levels, causes migraines, headaches, etc. This intensity is more when you skip breakfast rather than another meal.

Leads to Hair Loss.

Foods that have fewer protein levels affect the keratin and its level triggering hair loss as well as prevents the growth of the hair. But breakfast which is rich in proteins keeps you safe from these issues as it plays a major role in promoting the growth of hair follicles.

Accumulation of water fat.

Skipping breakfast leads to fat gain. However, this is called water fat. It can occur due to the accumulation of gastric juices, enzymes and acids that continue to get inside the stomach. Lack of any food causes these to accumulate and leads to the protrusion of your belly.
