Step 14: Eat Breakfast Regularly
The brain takes the consequences when you skip breakfast for whatever reason.
It does not even matter if you feel hungry or not.
According to experts from the Tufts University, breakfast sets the phase for the
brain and body for the entire day. As a matter of fact, metabolism and hormone
secretion work better when a person eats breakfast. In their research published in
the peer-review journal Physiology and Behavior, they discovered that kids who
eat breakfast learn in school faster and retain more information afterwards as
reflected in tests.
Another American study says that kids who eat breakfast have longer attention
span for the day, which makes it easier for them to be attentive in classes. This
discovery is important for people who are easily distracted when doing tasks.
Its connection to learning has something to do with chemical structure. Scientists
believe that the natural nutrients from food at the start of the day sets a chain of
reaction that boosts the performance of all organs, the brain included.
