This is one of the oldest weight-loss myths around, but that doesn’t mean people have gotten wise to why it’s a bunch of malarkey. In fact, The NPD Group estimated that as many as 31 million Americans simply walk out the door each morning without even giving the first meal of the day a second thought.

Why is this a nutrition myth? Because when you fail to provide your cells with the fuel they need to power you in the morning, they start to get a little sluggish. "Your cells might start pulling nutrients from other places, namely, uout muscles." With a cup of coffee, you might still feel alert and focused, but your cells’ rate of energy production, otherwise called the basal metabolic rate, drops. When your stomach starts rumbling for lunch, your body isn’t equipped to process the sudden rush of calories. Instead of saving some weight gain by skipping breakfast in the morning, your body actually sends more of your next meal straight to fat.

Any breakfast is better than no breakfast
