Most of tends to miss breakfast in the morning, it’s either not in the mood to eat or I’m late for work I’ll eat during my morning break at mid morning. If you are one these people described, then you are missing a big trick here.
Let me explain breakfast is key, when you are sleeping you don’t eat at this period of time your body will be fasting leaving yourself hungry in the morning. Now if you don’t eat a thing your body will respond and release glycogen (carbohydrates) stored from the liver as it thinks your body is in a life-threatening situation. This will raise your blood sugar levels and this will lead to the pancreas releasing insulin – bringing your sugar levels below your optimal level as your blood sugar doesn’t like to be so high, keep repeating this you’ll always feel tired in the morning and can lead to over eating later in the day as well as bingeing during the day. This is one of the reasons why you shouldn’t skip breakfast.
Another reason why breakfast is important if you fasted for so long, your body will release lipogenic enzymes, which are your fat storing enzymes if they increase you will be losing your lipolytic enzymes which are your fat burning enzymes. So if you don’t want to put on fat – start eating breakfast to increase fat burning enzymes straight away.
Couple more benefits breakfast can give for you: -
- Your unlikely to snack on junk food
- Feel more energised and focused for the day
- You will be healthier and leaner
- You’ll lower the risk with health problems e.g. diabetes
Start eating your breakfast now and reap the benefits to your health and fitness lifestyle.




I always get asked what is the best food to eat for healthy living lifestyle. Here are my answers.
Eating meals & snacks slowly – One of the most common eating habits for people who are overweight is that they eat too QUICKLY and not chewing their food properly. The result of this is people eating more than they need. So slowing down your eating will really benefit those quick eaters amongst us. Try to aim at chewing your food at least 21 times this should last 20 – 30 seconds, or try and put your cutlery down after every bite and cut down your portion sizes.
