The+Most+Important+Meal+Of+The+Day

 Many kids do not eat breakfast, because they say they don’t feel hungry or they don’t have enough time for breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you sleep at night, your body needs fuel, to get you up and going. Breakfast is the fuel that people need to keep them going for the day. 

It is really important to eat breakfast, and any breakfast is better than no breakfast. But something that is high in calories, sugar and fat, won’t have enough nutrients to keep you full and energized all day. Like other meals, at breakfast you should eat a variety of different foods from the four main food groups in Canada’s Food Guide.

Some kids skip breakfast because they sleep too late or because they think it’s a way to stay thin. But, when people skip breakfast, it doesn’t help to maintain a healthy weight. In fact, people who don’t eat breakfast tend to eat more calories in a day. When people don’t have the fuel from breakfast that they need, they spend the rest of the day snacking on unnecessary food because they feel hungry. People who have a big breakfast will maintain a healthy weight, because they won’t need to snack on unnecessary foods throughout the day.

Eating a good breakfast every morning has many benefits. Kids tend to do better in school. Most kids are more likely going to want to participate in physical activities and they will maintain a healthy body weight. And overall, they will be happier, with their excellent health.
