What can happen to those who do not eat breakfast at a young age?

The habit of skipping breakfast in childhood can increase the risk of diabetes in adolescence, say scientists involved in a new study. A team of British medical experts has found that many children skip breakfast every morning.

As they get older, they are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes. A study by scientists from the Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, Glasgow, and St George's London found that children who did not eat breakfast were more likely to develop insulin resistance, which is one of the main causes of the disease. The main reason.

Researchers monitored 4,000 British children aged 9 and 10 during an experiment and looked at their breakfast habits and looked at what they ate for breakfast. Children who did not eat breakfast every day had significantly higher bookmarks than those of their peers who ate breakfast regularly.

Scientists found that despite not eating breakfast, these children had high levels of insulin and their bodies were not able to respond well to insulin. The amount of sugar at the time was higher than that of children who ate breakfast regularly.

The human body needs insulin to remove sugar from the bloodstream so that energy can be obtained from this sugar. Insulin is a hormone that kills beta cells in the pancreas.

Insulin plays a vital role in the care of the human body by balancing the amount of glucose in the blood and sending signals to the excess glucose to be stored in the liver in the form of glucose or fat.

In diabetes, the pancreas does not function properly or the production of insulin stops, which leads to type 1 diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, the pancreas does not release enough insulin to meet the body's needs. The cells and tissues of the body do not work properly with insulin which causes the blood sugar level to rise.

In the study, published in the journal Plus Medicine, scientists found that eating a high-fiber breakfast, such as cereals or cereals, was protection against diabetes. The study found that skipping breakfast was not directly linked to diabetes, but children who did not eat breakfast were more likely to crave snacks or sweet and fatty foods throughout the day.

In contrast, eating breakfast, which is an important source of fiber, helps protect against the disease. Dr. Angela said that there is evidence that skipping breakfast increases the chances of weight gain, but it may be possible to avoid snacking throughout the day because of breakfast.

Referring to the study conducted by Diabetes UK, a spokesperson for Diabetes UK said that more studies are needed to find out the direct link between breakfast and diabetes.

Breakfast is a very important meal - it can either make or break your day. By no means should we skip it at any age. You are writing very nice articles, you have been on the platform for a month now, so I wonder why you have so few published articles? Greetings to you
