You people must have heard from doctors and dieticians – giving suggestions and great advice about morning breakfast that--, "The morning breakfast is essential to your health."

 In today’s scenario, we have seen that in morning people prefer a cup of tea instead of milk or juice…either they are male’s running for their work, or home-maker.

Same thing we will understand in different manner...Normally a person sleeps 7 to 8 hrs during night. During this period a person’s stomach is completely empty...that means food is completely digested. During morning stomach is soft and in relaxed state. If in morning you take only Tea or Coffee then the amount of Hydrochloric acid increases and this gives occurrence to stomach pain or throat irritation. Gradually increasing of this results in stomach ulcers which damages stomach. Asperity is also the cause due to the negligence of breakfast in morning according to the thinking of Specialists.

Amount of glucose decreases in body by not having morning breakfast or remaining hungry, without food for longer span of time. It results into hypo-glacemia. And also creates weakness and lack of efficiency.

A survey, study was done on school going children….. Those children who were having their morning breakfast were very attentive in the class then the children not having morning breakfast. And moreover they are always lethargic and in dizziness. If a teacher sees such student having dizziness would question him immediately that whether he had his morning breakfast or not?
