If You DON'T Eat Breakfast, You NEED To See This

Über dieses Video

The idea that breakfast is the most important meal of the day was invented by a cereal company. Before the Industrial Revolution, people ate whatever was left over from the night before or had a quick heavy meal before going out to do physical farm labor. As people moved into cities and took sedentary office jobs, those heavy greasy breakfasts started causing widespread indigestion. Enter Harvey Kellogg, who ran a famous health sanitarium and believed that a clean, light, grain-based diet would cure the problem. He co-invented cornflakes and pushed the narrative that a healthy cold cereal breakfast was essential for a productive day. It was an advertising campaign, not science. Dr. Martin Picard, Professor of Behavioral Medicine and Director of the Mitochondrial Psychobiology Group at Columbia University, explains why he used to eat a big bowl of cereal every morning and feel terrible afterwards. He now understands why: he was overloading his system with rapidly available sugary energy that his body did not need. The body then has to find a way to handle the excess. Either you store it as fat, or if your body cannot easily store fat, it floods the brain and makes you feel lousy.
