ADELAIDE DANIELS SAYS BREAKFAST CAN HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT The trouble with breakfast is that most people aren't eating it. Nutritionists say that 50 per cent of Canadians are willing to skip it. Yet breakfast is the most important meal of the day -- even to fat people, who are surprised to learn that it can actually help them back to a normal weight. Whether you are thin or overweight, breakfast should provide you with at least a fourth of your day's proteins, minerals and vitamins. Without it, you're unlikely to get your full complement of those important nutrients for the day. Just as serious, is the fact that skipped breakfast results in poor con- centration during the morning, afternoon droopiness, and the danger on both occasions of compensating with a sweet-and-starchy high calorie snack that destroys the value of your hard-working weight control programme. If you are trying to lose weight, you will find it less difficult if you start with a simple but adequate breakfast such as fresh fruit or juice, a poached egg, a slice of whole-wheat bread and skim milk. Such a breakfast is within the limits of a sound weight watching programme, yet provides enough nourishment to see you alertly through the morning. When you get up in the morning, you have been without food for at least seven -- and more likely, 10 or 11 hours. The body's supply of glucose or blood sugar, essential to the functioning of the brain and central nervous system, is at its lowest ebb for the day. Doctors tell us that unless the body is freshly primed with the carbo- hydrates and proteins it needs to keep glucose concentration at a sufficiently high level, you tend to become increasingly nervous and inefficient as the morning wears on. A light but nourishing breakfast spreads its influence over the entire morning, and keeps you from being hungry by 11 o'clock, or starved by lunchtime. This is why breakfast can actually help overweight men and women to grow slimmer. And remember -- with breakfast you are on your way to a happier. more efficient day.
