*We've all heard that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but do we actually feel any different if we don't eat it? I mean, I never used to get hungry in the mornings, so it wasn't a big deal if I didn't eat breakfast. After being in rigorous courses here at Iowa State, I've realized how important it is for me personally to eat a good breakfast. I've noticed that if I don't eat breakfast I'm obviously more hungry, but I'm also more tired, which causes me to lose focus. I nod off in all my morning classes and all I can think about is food.
The morning of tests days is when breakfast is especially important for me. It's much easier for me to focus on my exams if I have eaten a good breakfast. In the end, I usually do better than I would have if I didn't eat breakfast.
I know how all college students, especially girls, are concerned with being healthy and not gaining weight. Well, turns out, if you eat breakfast you will actually burn more calories throughout the day. It gives your metabolism a jump start, and you start burning calories first thing in the morning!
So overall, you should make time for breakfast. Even something little is better than nothing. Give your body the nutrition is needs and deserves!
