THE MOST IMPORTANT MEAL OF THE DAY
When you wake up in the morning, your body has been fasting for as many as 12-15 hours. It needs fuel in order to work at peak efficiency.
THE EFFECTS OF A SKIPPED BREAKFAST ARE:
*short attention span
*Lack of alertness
*Low blood sugar
*Decreased work productivity
*In school children: more social and emotional problems and poorer grades.
A GOOD BALANCED BREAKFAST WILL HELP:
*Supply energy when you need it most
*Prevent irritability and fatigue
*Provide 1/3 to 1/2 of the day’s total nutritional requirements
*Help control weight by preventing mid-morning hunger
*Stop the urge to snack
*Stabilize blood sugar levels
*Improve efficiency and safety
*Promote better attitudes and scholastic achievements
“Blessed are you, O Land..when your princes feast at the proper time for strength and not for drunkenness.” Ecclesiastes 10:17
