　　Breakfast is not only the most important meal of the day, it is also the most neglected or skipped. Common reasons for not eating breakfast include lack of time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike for breakfast, and dieting.

　　Breakfast simply means “break the fast.” Your body spends at least six to twelve hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy to rev up (转动起来) into high gear for the day’s work ahead.

　　If you skip breakfast, you are likely to concentrate less effectively in the late morning, feel irritable, short-tempered(易怒的), tired, or weak.

　　When you choose not to eat breakfast, your body stays in slow gear. Also, people who skip breakfast often binge (无节制的大吃) later in the day at other meals or eat a high-calorie (高卡路里) snack in the morning. Breakfast eaters tend to eat less fat during the day, have more strength and endurance and better concentration and problem-solving ability.

　　A good breakfast should provide up to 1/3 of your total calorie needs for the day. On the average, we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner. If breakfast doesn’t appeal to you in the morning, try eating a lighter-dinner, earlier in the evening or save half your dinner for breakfast in the morning.

　　If you still aren’t hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a mid-morning snack later when you are hungry.

　　Not eating breakfast can also cause you to overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slowed state, it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently. If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day, you are less likely to become extremely hungry and stuff yourself as soon as you begin to eat.

　　Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day, choosing the right fuel is important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, lean meat, and grain products such as breads, rice, noodles, and cereals.

本题解析：

早餐不仅是每天最重要的一餐，它也是最容易被忽视的一餐。不吃早餐的常见原因包括：浪费时间、不饿、习惯上不喜欢吃早餐还有节食。

　　简单说来早餐就是“打破禁食”。晚上睡觉时你的身体至少会有6-10个小时处在禁食状态。早上的时候你的身体需要能量为这一整天的工作进入高速运转。

　　如果你没吃早餐，到了上午要结束的时候，你很可能效率很低，而且很急躁易怒，或者疲劳虚弱。

　　如果你选择不吃早餐，你的身体运行仍保持低速状态。同时，没吃早餐的人，在一天中其他饭点常会无节制大吃，或是上午选择高热量的零食。吃早餐的人在一天中摄入的脂肪更少，精力和耐力更好，并且注意力更集中，解决问题能力更强。

　　一份营养的早餐需要提供一天总能量的三分之一。平均起来，我们早餐摄入的热量比晚餐少400卡路里。如果早上确实没什么胃口，可以试试在前一天早点吃晚饭或者留一些晚饭当早餐吃。

　　如果这样早上你还是不饿，你可以在饿的时候喝一点果汁，吃一小片面包或者一份上午点心。

　　不吃早餐会导致你过度饮食，因为血糖降低常会使你在晚些时候觉得很饿。更糟糕的是，因为你的身体处在低速运行的状态，它不能够有效地转化那些多余的卡路里。如果你在一天中吃一点健康的零食和食物，你就不会很饿，也不好一开吃就吃个不停。

　　既然早餐是第一餐也是每天最重要的一餐，选择吃什么也是很重要的。最好的早餐就是水果、果汁、瘦肉和谷物类食品，比如面包、米饭、面条和麦片。
