Skipping breakfast is a fast track to a miserable day. Most of us know that, mostly from experience. Researchers everywhere have explained the health benefits of starting each day with a healthy, hearty breakfast: people generally feel more energized and even end up consuming less calories during the day. Good enough reasons not to skip it, if you ask me!
