Besides, chronic breakfast skippers tend to be predisposed to low blood sugar, insulin sensitivity, high blood pressure, and heart attack. There are various other effects from chronically skipping breakfast. Energy, hormonal balance, memory, and mood all tend to suffer. There is even greater predisposition to hair loss (in particular with low protein consumption in the morning) or cancer(1).
It is especially key, though, not to eat just any old thing for breakfast. [Many people don't consider that putting themselves through food penance doesn't replace fueling with the right things]. Consuming high protein and fiber in the morning specifically is a key combination, as well as consuming closer to .68 grams of protein per pound of body weight or above through the day. The brain requires amino acids - protein building blocks - to synthesize neurotransmitters for proper sleep. Reduced calorie consumption tends to affect sleep patterns, and so adequate protein during the day is especially key for weight loss. Morning protein consumption is especially key in this regard, whereas most people eat less protein at breakfast than later on(2). [I make sure, though, that I get vitamins, minerals, and otherwise a complete range nutrients at breakfast beyond just protein and fiber]
My best breakfast, with fewer dishes to wash to boot, is:
Shake
