[10:23.33]If you have to miss one meal a day
[10:30.83](or if you want to do so)
[10:34.44]which meal will cause you fewest health problems
[10:40.13]if you don't eat it?If you have to make a decision of this type
[10:47.73]you will probably choose to skip breakfast
[10:52.83]However,many experts in the field of health consider breakfast
[11:02.44]to be the most important meal of the day.
[11:06.72]If we eat a good breakfast,they say,we will have the energy
[11:14.80]and nutrients we need to begin our working day with vigour
[11:20.88]and hopefully with good humour.Nevertheless,many people skip breakfast
[11:30.49]or substitute a donut and a cup of coffee for a well balanced meal
[11:38.59]What happens if we ignore the importance of breakfast
[11:45.59]One recent study conducted in the United States tested a large number of people
[11:57.09]Participants included both males and females who ranged in age from 12 to 83
[12:08.58]During the experiment,
[12:13.28]these people were given a variety of breakfasts and sometimes
[12:20.68]they had to skip breakfast completely.Special tests,
[12:28.07]including blood tests and endurance tests,were set up to analyze
[12:36.27]how well the participants'bodies functioned
[12:42.25]when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast.
[12:47.43]The results showed that if a person eats an adequate breakfast,
[12:56.20]he or she will work more efficiently and more productively
[13:03.18]than if he or she sikp breakfast or eats a very poor breakfast.
[13:11.56]This fact appears to be especially trueif a person's work involves mental activity
[13:22.56]The study showed that if school children eat fruit
[13:29.17]eggs,bread,and milk before going to school,they will learn more quickly
[13:37.06]and will be able to concentrate on their lessons for a longer period of time
[13:43.67]than if their breakfast diet is inadequate.
[13:49.57]The study also showed that,contrary to what many people believe
[13:58.66]if you skip breakfast,you will not lose weight
[14:05.06]This is because people become so hungryif they skip breakfast
[14:13.26]that they eat too much for lunchand end up gaining weight instead of losing
[14:22.17]So remember,if you are on a diet,skipping breakfast will not help you
[14:31.86]You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
