Have breakfast, reduce risk of heart attack
Skipping breakfast could make you vulnerable to greater risk of heart attack, US researchers have warned.
Health experts have suggested that older men not bothering to eat after getting up are a quarter more likely to have a cardiac arrest or die from coronary disease than those who do, Daily Mail reported.
According to the researchers, missing a morning meal or eating very late at night may trigger changes in the body’s metabolism that leads to coronary heart disease.
It may also affect blood sugar and hormone levels that make heart disease more likely.
For their study spanning 16 years, the researchers tracked the health of 26,902 male health professionals aged 45-82 and asked them to complete a series of eating questionnaires.
Altogether 1,572 men had a first-time “cardiac event” during the period, said the study published in the medical journal Circulation.
Men who skipped breakfast were found to have a 27 percent higher risk of heart attack or death from coronary heart disease than breakfast eaters.
The men who did not eat breakfast were younger than those who did, and were more likely to be smokers, employed full-time, unmarried, less physically active and to drink more alcohol.
Men who ate after going to bed had a 55 percent higher coronary heart disease risk than those who did not, but it was a small minority of the total.
It is really needed to take your breakfast. this promotes good works, both at school if you are a student and even at work. The rate of the body functions, depends on what your stomach has.
Apart from this research findings, I have observed that if one does take breakfast as at when due, he becomes ling within midday. and the body system does not function effectively. For those who do hard, labor and are observant, you will agree with me that, when you don’t take your breakfast, you get weak earlier than those who took their breakfast and when you eat later than suppose, your body gets weaker and every little thing you do, your body requests for rest. So, take your breakfast and eat as at when due to live longer.
