Breakfasting can help obese stay active

ISLAMABAD: The best way to make the most of the day is to kick-start with a breakfast as according to a new study, breakfasting can help obese people get more active.

The University of Bath England research analyzed the links between breakfast and health for individuals classed as ‘obese,’ comparing the results from a fasting group with a breakfasting group.

Eating breakfast did not make obese individuals lose weight but did result in more physical activity in the morning and reduced food intake later in the day, meaning both groups ate similar amounts overall, said the study published in the journal American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Increasing activity is one of the most important ways to improve health in our increasingly sedentary population, so the researchers suggest this could be a key benefit. Lead researcher James Betts explains that despite many people offering opinions about whether or not you should eat breakfast, to date there has been a lack of rigorous scientific evidence showing 

A piece published earlier: 

People, particularly young kids tend to skip their breakfasts, and it is becoming widespread.

This is a serious concern, as a number of studies have demonstrated its mauvais impacts on health.

Bearing this in mind, a novel research has claimed that omitting breakfast could boost the risk of having vascular disease, obesity, diabetes or high blood sugar.

Feast timing could affect our health by influencing the body’s internal clock. We may not process sugars at night but during the day.

There is a fallacy apropos missing out breakfast that unless we eat less, we cannot be able to remain in shape. On the contrary, the truth is that eating healthy breakfast could help you shed that extra mass.

Fruits, veggies, whole grains, low-fat dairy, poultry, and fish should be included in the everyday diet.  Moreover, humans should avoid ingestion of red meat, salt, and sugary items.

It has further been observed that a number of night owls are really into the late night snacks habit. However, eating in the dead of the night is considered to increase calories.

Regarding this, health and wellness practitioners’ suggested that people should imbibe calories in the morning and intake less grub at night as it could lessen the odds of mounting heart attack, stroke or other cardiac or blood vessel maladies. (3rd February, 2017)
