Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day. After a break of over 8-9 hours after dinner and sleep, our stomach is empty and it has no food to metabolise and convert into energy for our body, to go about the day. Therefore, when we don’t have breakfast, we tend to feel lethargic and tired.
We have heard this many times from experts and doctors, but more often than not we tend to forget it quickly. Amid the work and hustle-bustle of the early morning rush, we tend to skip our morning meal often or simply grab the quickest thing possible - which is often a fruit or simple bread and butter. Some even survive on just coffee. But skipping breakfast or eating less in the morning will not only make you feel fatigued through the day, but also lead to untimely cravings and overeating during other meals.
