Breakfast is not only the most important meal of the day，but also the most neglected.Common reasons for not eating breakfast include lack of time，not feeling hungry，traditional dislike for breakfast，and dieting.
Breakfast simply means：break the fast.Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state.In the morning your body needs energy for the day's work ahead.
A good breakfast should provide up to 1/3 of your total calories needed for the day.On average we eat 400 calories less for breakfast than for dinner.If you don't want to have breakfast in the morning，try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.
Some people who fear eating breakfast will make themselves hungrier during the day and they will eat more.It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day.That's because your body is working.Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long，in fact you are probably not.
Not eating breakfast can cause you to overeat，since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later.What's worse，since your body is in a slow state it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently(有效率地)．
Breakfast is the first and most important.The best breakfast foods are fruits，juice，meat，and grain products such as bread，rice，and noodles.
