According to foreign media reports, Japanese researchers found that, compared with people who eat breakfast every day, almost do not eat breakfast people brain hemorrhage risk is 36% higher. Japan’s Osaka University and the National Cancer Research Center of Japan’s research team pointed out after a large-scale tracking survey, the human body after a night’s rest, the stomach and intestines have basically been emptied, resulting in a sharp drop in blood glucose, prone to panic, dizziness, memory loss, fatigue and functional symptoms, coupled with the lack of food for breakfast or nutritional matching is not reasonable, resulting in insufficient energy intake, there will be a variety of diseases, such as low blood pressure, hypoglycemia and so on. Many women who do not eat breakfast the main purpose is to lose weight, and in fact, do not eat breakfast not only will not appear good weight loss, but also will appear to gain weight or bring some diseases. From 1985 to 2010, Osaka University Professor Iso Hiroyasu led a team of researchers to Japan’s eight prefectures of about 83,000 residents between the ages of 45 and 74 years of age were tracked for about 13 years. During that time, 1,051 people suffered cerebral hemorrhages, 3,772 suffered strokes, and 870 suffered from myocardial infarction and other hyperemic heart diseases. After analyzing the results, the research team found that people who answered that they ate breakfast less than twice a week at the beginning of the survey were 36% more likely to develop brain hemorrhage compared to those who ate breakfast every day, and the risk increased the less often they ate breakfast. The research team concluded that the most important risk factor for brain hemorrhage is high blood pressure, and in particular the rise in blood pressure in the morning is thought to play an important role. If breakfast is skipped, the stress response caused by fasting causes blood pressure to rise, and for this reason, people who skip breakfast have an increased risk of brain hemorrhage.
