Breakfast

Like my blog post on March 29th mentioned, breakfast is a very important meal of the day. Breakfast gives you the energy you need for the day and helps with your metabolism for the rest of the day. As I stated in my past blog, it is important for runners and all athletes to eat a hearty meal for breakfast in order to have the energy they need to perform. In this blog, I want to mention the importance for your children to eat breakfast everyday. According tohttp://www.thedietchannel.com/5-Important-Reasons-Your-Child-Should-Eat-Breakfast.htm, there are five main reasons why breakfast is the most important meal for children. For one, breakfast helps children have better behavior. They will be less irritable and restless. Also, children who eat breakfast are less likely to get in trouble at school. Furthermore, breakfast leads to higher test scores, better class attendance, provides them with more energy to be physical for their daily exercise in school. Finally, children who eat breakfast are less likely to become overweight. This is especially important because there has been a huge rise in obesity in children. There are many tips on the website I provided above for parents to help their children eat breakfast every morning. Also, it is important to eat healthy for the other two meals left in your day. If you look back at my previous blog posts in February and March, you can find great recipes for lunch or dinner!
