In the fight for longevity, it is very important to monitor your diet. It is also necessary to pay attention to weight, as extra kilograms can lead to a number of serious consequences.

Among the problems that excess weight can provoke, diseases of the cardiovascular system and type 2 diabetes. To prevent weight gain, you need to follow a proper diet. In this regard, not only products are important, but also the size of portions and the frequency of meals.

For example, breakfast is often avoided: someone says that they are not hungry in the morning, and someone simply does not have time. Also, as a possible method of losing weight, it is customary not to have dinner or to have dinner no later than 18:00.

The study deals with the relationship between the frequency of food intake and changes in the body mass index (BMI). After processing the data of 50.66 thousand people, the scientists managed to establish their eating habits: how often they eat, whether they eat breakfast, what is their biggest meal.

It turned out that those of the subjects who ate the most breakfast, had the lowest BMI compared to those who skipped breakfast or ate the most at lunch.

“Eating a hearty breakfast can be one of the effective methods in the fight against extra pounds,” the researchers said.< /p>
