Is skipping breakfast really bad for you?

In general, not consuming breakfast is not conducive to good health and may also cause discomfort such as functional indigestion and hypoglycemia.
According to the 2022 edition of the Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents, it is recommended to rationalize the arrangement of three meals a day, quantitatively and regularly, and to eat breakfast every day without skipping meals, which is good for your health.
Not consuming breakfast will lead to irregular diet, which is one of the risk factors for inducing functional dyspepsia. Breakfast facilitates the elimination of bile, which somehow helps to reduce the probability of diseases such as gallstones.
In addition, not consuming breakfast also leads to low blood sugar in the morning, resulting in a lack of energy supply to the brain, which may cause palpitations, hand tremors, fatigue and sweating and other hypoglycemic discomfort, which is not conducive to good health.
Therefore, it is recommended to consume breakfast in moderation every day to ensure the supply of energy and nutrients, which is more conducive to good health.
