Why Skipping Breakfast Sabotages Your Health | Dr. Mark Hyman

[@pbrigham]

I m not so sure about that, I have been skipping breakfast ( except coffee, only coffee) and I'm on keto diet for almost 6 months and walking around 50 minutes a day, I'm down 20Kg ( 45 pounds ), I feel no hungry at all for snacks or sugar. Im 57. So I guess is what works best for you.

[@janetgerl893]

From what I’ve learned about the Keto diet it seems like a short term solution to weight loss. But beyond that. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@nancycy9039]

⁠@@janetgerl893it’s a long term/life long way of eating. Why would it be short term?

[@pbrigham]

@@janetgerl893 maybe, but as long I feel good and in shape I’m happy, and I don’t care if is keto or any other diet, but if you are eating healthy, feeling great and in shape, probably you are doing something good, the losing weight and looking good is just a bonus.

[@helendennis7662]

@@janetgerl893that’s right, it’s not healthy to cut out huge swathes of food, especially plant foods, we - or our gut bacteria at least - need fibre and the phytonutrients in plants. There are NO good or long term studies on keto, anything good you hear is anecdotal. Of course keto does show benefits, it’s basically a hugely restrictive diet, eliminating most of the problem foods by default - UPFs and refined carbs. Whatever you eat once those toxic things are gone you will be healthier

100% agree. You shouldn't eat when you're not hungry. Seems like what you eat is more important. Eat your big meal when you break your fast (for me around noon, when I actually start to feel hungry), then a smaller meal at least three hours before bedtime. Low carb is key to avoid cravings. I have an overwhelming sweet tooth, but it totally disappears when I keep my daily carbs below about 20 grams total each day.

[@smokey11a1]

I found that eating later 11:30 12, or 1 pm improved my heart condition. I found that fasting for 18 hours or a little more definitely gave me some autophagy. An overall long period of time helped me beat my heart problem. If I eat in the morning my blood sugar level is stable, but I lose that extra bit of autophagy which appears to be like turning on a dimmer switch. I've done this test quite a few times over a few years. I am also a very slim build, and always have been. But interestingly I noticed my muscle increased with the fasting. There seemed to be a growth hormone release which appeared to protect the muscle.

[@hubey]

I split breakfast into two meals. First water dense fruit, wait an hour, then something with a full serve of protein, but easy to digest. Eg. Protein shake with a side small serve of quinoa flakes with crushed mixed seed porridge. The fruit first helps break the overnight fast with needed water, sugars, minerals and electrolytes just like in exercise exhaustion. Then the protein, low gi carb, plus seed fat meal, does what is talked about in the video. It fulfills 2 major needs. Replenishment first, then sustenance to start the day.

I normally had been skipping breakfast and eating at lunch time. However, lately I have been waking up STARVING like I have never felt before. I honestly feel like I should eat breakfast again and just have a broth or light soup for dinner. I feel like for some reason at this piint skipping breakfast being this unusually hungry currently will cause my metabolism to slow down. Beforehand I didn't feel this was an issue but before I didn't wake up feeling ridiculously hungry either. Something has changed for this moment, so I will go with the change for now and see what happens. The fact that your video on this topic keeps being suggested to me seems like a universal nudge.

[@KatarinaS.]

Listen to your body. It may change from day to day, week to week, season to season, year to year. Pause and sense what it's telling you, through hunger cues, cravings, how you feel, both physically and mentally, after eating certain foods or omitting others, and symptoms, improvements, or other changes that may occur. Try to take some time to do this throughout the day, every day, and heed the signs your body gives you, and eventually you should find that you feel better because you're doing what nature intended, rather than what current social norms around food dictate. We're all unique and what works for one person won't necessarily work for another.

[@jenniferdunlop4443]

This is quite true for me. I eat two meals a day, breakfast around 10 AM (eggs, sausage, bacon, cheese) and dinner around 3 or so PM. If I eat any later in the day I get too hot during the night and don’t sleep well. My breakfast is by far my biggest meal.

[@JS-mh1fh]

Skipping breakfast is part of implementing intermittent fasting most days since I'm now in perimenopause. It helped me regain control of weight gain, but when I do, it is usually eggs, always a protein with tea. Protein is important for retaining muscle in this part of life for women. Before perimenopause I always ate breakfast.

[@helendennis7662]

I’m the opposite, at 46 and after years of fasting til lunchtime/early afternoon I’m not able to shift some stubborn fat I gained after stopping the pill. I realised it’s possibly because of cortisol (it affects insulin) so I started eating earlier in the evening and trying to eat earlier the next day, so I can keep a long fast - if I need to, and apparently I shouldn’t be fasting so long every day according to Mindy Pelz Fast like a Girl. it’s not easy, I’m just not hungry, but hearing this message again and from another source just reinforced that I’m on the right track.

Right. I usually have a modest brunch around 12pm, like eggs, brown bread, legumes and a bit of meat. Seems like it works, too, having walked before and lifted weights if possible. Sometimes I have plenty of chow around midday, with smaller meals like soups and sammiches around 5pm. One can trust the body once the metabolism is sorted out: hungry? Enjoy some whole foods...

I just listen, don't watch. True of many videos - lots of visual distractions.

Wonderful intelligent advice.

I don't eat until around 4pm everyday.....for the last 6 yrs. I couldn't dream of doing it any other way. I drink coffee with ghee,. Ghee has a plethora of benefits. You don't have to actually "eat" I also consume spirilina in the morning. I'm getting plenty of fuel . Studies show that protein co nsumption is not dependent on time of day.

Is protein for breakfast good for stage 4 chronic (lupus) kidney disease? Thanks.

This is one of those times you don’t need to listen to the Internet gurus because you know better. Breakfast is not the most important fuel of the day or meal of the day. In fact your own body fat is better.. but don’t tell!

my kids(grown) are greatful we never had cereal in the house. savory break the fast is best!

[@SteveMaGuff]

Does not work for me unfortunately, skipping breakfast makes me feel much better. I'm sure each person is unique and should try test to see what works for them.

[@zhoujinyuan]

define what does it mean "skipping break first". If I do two meal a day, which I am skipping ? dinner, lunch or breakfast?

[@PlanetG-jd7fe]

Excellent video, all the info I needed to start my day. Thanks!

Thank you 👍👍👍

[@abrooklyngirllinda]

this is super helpful as breakfast is always a struggle for me and sometimes i don't feel like a smoothee (and i don't eat eggs).
