While we often hear that our first meal of the day is our most important, breakfast continues to be the most skipped meal of the day. Men are more likely to skip the morning meal, but women opt out too. Reasons for not eating breakfast include lack of time, as well as cost and wanting to cut calories.
Several studies have shown an association between avoiding a morning meal and weight gain and even obesity. What's more, eating breakfast gives you the best leg up on the day when it comes to getting important nutrients like calcium, vitamin C, and that very elusive and all-important fiber. You may also be missing outon folate, iron, vitamin D and B vitamins.
