Skip Breakfast Primes The Brain To Look For Fat
Dear Reader,
If you're a regular breakfast skipper... here's news that might have you changing your ways. Brain scans conducted at Imperial College London have found that not eating this first meal of the day makes fatty, high calorie foods look so much more attractive later on.
Nutritionists tell us that eating breakfast takes the edge off appetite and researchers wanted to learn about what goes on in the brain to alter the foods we choose to eat. The results of this intriguing research were presented at the Neuroscience 2012 conference.
The study involved scans of 21 subjects, all of normal weight who were shown photos of calorie packed foods while inside a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine. The team saw that the brain was more attracted to food if breakfast was skipped and also causing a subject to eat more at lunchtime. Obvious this makes losing weight pretty challenging... especially if calorie rich choices actually appeal to us more.
On one day the subjects were given no breakfast before the scans, while on a different day they were served a huge, 730 calorie breakfast an hour and a half before going into the MRI scanner. Skipping breakfast appeared to create a bias in the brain in favor of calorie-laden foods, changing how the brain reacted to pictures of high calorie foods, while not reacting as strongly to low calorie ones. The part of the brain thought to be involved in food appeal (the orbitofrontal cortex) was more active on an empty stomach.
When the subjects were offered lunch at the end of the period in the scanners, they ate a full fifth more calories if they hadn't eaten breakfast. Dr. Tony Goldstone points out that fasting makes people hungrier, upping the appeal of high calorie foods and how much someone might eat at the next meal.
Many agree that eating breakfast takes the edge off your hunger, and keeps blood sugar levels stabile. A healthy breakfast refuels you and replenishes the glycogen stores that give your muscles energy. This helps keep dieters on track to make healthier choices for the rest of the day. Breakfast eaters tend to eat a diet that's more nutritious and lower in fat. They also have more energy and the fuel to be more active during the rest of the day.
Eating breakfast on a regular basis may help with keeping the weight off over the long haul according to survey respondents from the National Weight Control Registry (NWCR) who have lost at least 30 pounds and kept it off for a year or more. When it came to strategies to keep the pounds away a full 78% ate breakfast every day while a mere 4% of successful weight losers never ate breakfast.

Some good breakfast choices to try...
- Ready to eat cereals, high fiber varieties with 3 to 5 grams of fiber per serving are best, though if sugar cereals are your only choice, that's better than nothing. You can also mix sweetened with unsweetened cereal for a healthier breakfast option. Don't forget the low fat milk and fresh or frozen fruit.
- 1 cup of oatmeal, ½ cup of low-fat milk, 1 cup of sliced strawberries or another fresh/frozen fruit, and 1 tablespoon of walnuts.
- Two multi-grain waffles, with 1 cup of blueberries, 3 tablespoons of light syrup, and 1 cup of plain low-fat yogurt.
- Banana sliced and spread with peanut butter or sliced and mixed into plain yogurt.
- Small tortilla with a few tablespoons of peanut butter and chopped strawberries, roll it up, slice and serve
- Breakfast smoothies that include berries, ice and low fat milk or yogurt go along and are healthy too.
- If you can't give up that bagel, go for half or the smaller sizes. Spread with some almond or cashew butter rather than cream cheese, or at least buy the low-fat variety.
Future work will look at how obese people might be affected by skipping that first, all-important meal of the day.
To your good health,
