We\u2019ve all heard the famous saying \u201cbreakfast is the most important meal of the day\u201d. So why, then, are we not always hungry when we wake up? Is the traditional breakfast about to disappear from our routines? Maybe. But breakfast should not be so easily overlooked because it is, indeed, the most important meal. Breakfast lifts your mood!<\/span><\/p>\n

The key word is flexibility! Waiting before you eat does not mean skipping your meal…<\/div><\/span><\/p>\n

Why You\u2019re Not Hungry in the Morning<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Many reasons can cause a complete or partial absence of hunger in the morning, especially when you just woke up.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/div><\/span><\/h4>\n

GOOD TO KNOW:<\/strong><\/span> Certain bad habits such as midnight snacking or eating your last meal very late in the evening can interfere with your hunger signals.<\/span><\/h4>\n

<\/div><\/span><\/h4>\n

Furthermore, whether you like it or not, your body enters a fasting state every night at different levels depending on when you last ate. When you sleep, your liver sends out glucose, a necessary sugar for the maintenance of your body. <\/span>In the morning, a cocktail of hormones is then released to prepare your body for the day. <\/span><\/p>\n

Those hormones promote glucose secretion and can therefore provoke a morning hyperglycemia or, in other words, an increase in blood sugar levels. This phenomenon contributes to the absence of appetite and can even cause morning sickness.<\/span><\/p>\n

Is It Good to Eat in the Morning?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Yes! Eating in the morning allows you to control your hunger better during the day. Moreover, if you regularly eat breakfast, you increase your chances of having a better diet in general while also consuming more fibers<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Indeed, many foods usually eaten in the morning are rich in fibers<\/a> , like many multigrain products<\/a>, fruits, nuts,  seeds, cereals and many more.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eating breakfast helps children focus in school! However, skipping breakfast has detrimental effets on cognitive performance. It also increases hunger at lunch time while decreasing variety in people\u2019s diets. But don\u2019t get excited and eat too much! A breakfast that\u2019s too big and rich in calories is also reduce your concentration.<\/span><\/p>\n

Just like anything else in nutrition, it\u2019s never quite black or white, but rather somewhere in the shades of grey!<\/div><\/span><\/p>\n
