How many times have you skipped breakfast because you are too rushing to go to class? Many of you may think that breakfast is not such an important meal.

1. Benefits of breakfast on health. A. Skipping breakfast is like when you forget to fill some gas in your car Having breakfast in the morning, it will help body to produce Glucose and other essential nutrients such as, calcium, B6, Foliate, and Iron. Skipping breakfast our body will stop producing glucose. But then our body will release another kind of glucose instead, which is called glycogen, this kind of glucose normally be stored in our lungs and liver, but will come out to serve our energy when there is no normal glucose that we get from food. And if, this glycogen has been used, the body will next break down the fatty acid. This fatty acid will automatically reduce our energy level which causes us not to be able to concentrate in class, and hard to joy other activities (Breakfast, 2008).
