The Importance Of Breakfast
by Timothy Rea
Let’s start where we all start . . . with breakfast! So many people tell me that they skip breakfast because they’re trying to lose weight. When I explain that it has the exact opposite effect, they just can’t comprehend that. But it’s true. And for those of you who do not currently eat breakfast, here’s some irrefutable statistics for you:
1) Those who eat breakfast away from home have a 137% increased in the risk of becoming obese. 2) Those who did not eat breakfast at all had a 450% increased risk of becoming obese, 3) Those who did not eat breakfast had a higher body mass index (BMI), and had less energy during the day. 4) Those who ate breakfast were less inclined to snack compulsively than those who skipped breakfast. 5) Those who skipped breakfast wound up eating 40% more calories during the day. 6) Those who ate a protein-based breakfast such as eggs, toast and jelly, felt fuller longer, and consumed fewer calories for at least 24 hours afterwards. Two groups were compared: one group, which ate a bagel, cream cheese, and yogurt, consumed a daily average of 2,035 calories. The egg-based group ate 1,761 calories.
An ideal breakfast should contain between 500-600 calories. And it’s not just what you eat, but when you eat it. Now, here are the very best breakfast menus we’ve come across . . .

Tid Bit: Did you ever wonder why you felt so good at the seas shore?
French seawater specialists attribute the curative effects to the revitalizing seashore climate-the negative ions in the sea airlift one's mood, they say, and the higher atmospheric pressure slows breathing and calms the nervous system. They also claim that seawater is so similar to human blood plasma that a soak in it (or a wrap of algae) can transfer nourishing trace elements through the skin into the bloodstream.
