4. A good breakfast increases concentration and helps to stay focused and alert
We used to be advised by our parents and teachers to have a healthy breakfast the day of an exam or test. They believed that this would help us stay alert and more focused. Food provides energy to our body and brain. If we are hungry, we feel weak and dizzy. Breakfast is necessary to stabilize our blood sugar. If you skip out on breakfast or eat the wrong foods, then you feel drowsy and lethargic. Our brain functions only if it receives plenty of fatty acids, vitamins and minerals. As you can see, a morning meal is the most important meal of the day. Stop inventing excuses trying to convince yourself that you do not have time for cooking. All you need is an egg and a toast – this combination takes just a couple of minutes to prepare. Vegetable and fruit smoothies are also great!
