Most people skip breakfast because they are not hungry or are trying to cut out their caloric intake for the day.
But eating breakfast is significantly better for you then limiting your calories. If you are trying to achieve or maintain a healthy weight, you should be eating breakfast every single day.
Breakfast determines how your metabolism will act for the rest of the day. Not only does it help you lose body fat, it keeps you from binge eating, increases your energy and affects your mood.
Dr. Chris Mohr, PhD, RD, says that, "The right nutrients consumed early in the day can ultimately transform your body over time. These foods are nothing 'magical.' Just simple, super-nutrient dense foods that are clearly better for energy and helping you lose body fat."
Dr. Mohr shares his seven quick, easy and cheap, tummy-trimming breakfast ideas and why a proper breakfast will help melt belly fat.
