Local paper has a long piece on why it is important to eat breakfast. (first published by Washington Post written by Ellie Krieger. "The research is clear .... it says that people who eat in the morning are sharper, has a better lipid profile and eat more nutritious foods.
Does not mention any studies but some anecdotal chit chat with a trainer and some experiences by a WP editor. Pretty bad.
Have to try to find out what this research they are vaguely eluding to actually says.
********************************************
Research (by googling etc)
An article posted in Appetite Magazine in May 2017 showed that when they made non breakfast eaters add breakfast to their day these women gained weight
*****************************************************************
paper in Journal of Nutrition from September 2017 called Meal Frequency and Timing Are Associated with Changes in Body Mass Index in Adventist Health Study 2.
What they say they found is that women eating the same amount of calories lost more weight if they ate breakfast
In conclusion it said:
Relative to subjects who ate their largest meal at dinner, those who consumed breakfast as the largest meal experienced a significant decrease in BMI (-0.038; 95% CI: -0.048, -0.028), and those who consumed a big lunch experienced a smaller but still significant decrease in BMI than did those who ate their largest meal at dinner.Conclusions: Our results suggest that in relatively healthy adults, eating less frequently, no snacking, consuming breakfast, and eating the largest meal in the morning may be effective methods for preventing long-term weight gain. Eating breakfast and lunch 5-6 h apart and making the overnight fast last 18-19 h may be a useful practical strategy.
I wonder how they arrived at the last sentence. If the breakfast eaters fasted 18 hours they would have had to have their supper around 3PM?
************************
Last thing I will add is that I read about thelong Bath Breakfast study which basically concluded that while the more healthy people ate breakfast it was likely because they tended to be health rule followers. Of the obese people they studied there was very little difference between people eating breakfast and not.

I so dislike these "informative" news articles and thousands of webpages with their silly claims and no foundation in facts
