[Health Stewardship]Hundreds of experts agree: If you skip a good breakfast, you torpedo your chances of working and living at your potential every day. Because . . . you’ve been sleeping for seven or eight hours, and your body—especially your brain—is starved for nutrients. If you skip breakfast, your body detects the lack of calories and, not knowing when food is coming again, goes immediately into starvation mode and starts to store fat reserves.
Furthermore, since you have nothing in your stomach, your brain begins to receive desperate “I’m hungry” signals. If you don’t get to good food soon you will freak out and hit the donuts or the vending machine. If you have a high-protein and high-fiber breakfast, you not only have more energy and creative juices flowing, you likely won't be hungry again before breakfast.
