We often read that breakfast is the most important meal of the day and should “eat breakfast like a king”. But, how many of us actually follow this lead? Many people because they are busy or want to lose weight have fasted or skipped breakfast. Here are some mistakes many people make about breakfast:
Skip breakfast
Don’t skip breakfast because you’re too busy. You should not try to skip this important meal because you want to lose weight. Skipping breakfast not only hinders the metabolism but also makes you sluggish and tired. So enjoy breakfast every day.

Eating the wrong starchy foods
Packaged foods such as cakes, pancakes, pies, etc. may seem delicious and suitable for breakfast, but they are not. They are full of carbs (carbohydrates), which usually only cause weight gain.
Juice for breakfast
Starting the day with a glass of fresh fruit juice may seem like a good idea, but from a health and weight control perspective, it’s a bad breakfast. According to experts, fruit or vegetable juices lack fiber and easily make you crave mid-morning snacks, thereby making you gain weight. Therefore, it is better to eat fresh fruit instead of drinking juice for breakfast.

Skip protein in breakfast
Many people think that in the morning, they should eat a lot of starch like rice to firm their stomach. But according to experts, eating a bowl of rice instead of an egg is a bad idea. Nutritionists suggest using high-protein foods for breakfast, like eggs, because they help you feel full longer and avoid overeating.
In addition to eggs, meat… you can choose from many other foods rich in plant-based protein such as beans…
Too much sugar at breakfast
People love to eat a muffin, a bowl of cereal, or a sweet, sugary toast for breakfast. According to experts, these foods only add calories to the body and reduce the intake of other healthy foods throughout the day. Therefore, avoid eating too many sugary foods for breakfast.
Breakfast also needs a balance of nutrients. (Illustration)
Drink a cup of tea or coffee
Many people consider tea and coffee as breakfast. This is not a good habit. The caffeine in these drinks really makes you hungry and makes it easier to overeat at lunch. In addition, when drinking tea or coffee on an empty stomach can cause headaches and discomfort in the digestive system.
Breakfast at the wrong time
Many people wake up late or have a lot of work to do at this point, so delay breakfast. Experts say it’s best to eat breakfast within 2 hours of waking up. This is good for metabolism.
