Just coffee in the morning? Anyone who skips breakfast has a twofold increased risk of cancer. People who regularly eat a balanced breakfast tend to have more stable blood sugar levels throughout the day.
This effect could help reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes. In addition, skipping the first meal leads to eating unhealthy foods, which also promotes diabetes. But breakfast is also said to have a protective effect with regard to other diseases. A balanced meal that contains complex carbohydrates, protein and healthy fats will prevent cravings.
