Document Summary
Effect of skipping breakfast on subsequent energy intake. Objective: two experimental studies examined skipping breakfast on subsequent energy intake. Skipping breakfast was not compensated by an increase in intake at lunch. Total daily energy intake was reduced by skipping breakfast. Effect was confirmed in a cross-sectional study of non-breakfast eaters. Humans do not compensate for variation in energy consumed at previous meals. Objective: examine the effect of consuming breakfast on subsequent energy intake. Participants: who habitually ate breakfast, who habitually skipped breakfast. Two studies (randomized crossover design, all foods weighted before and after consumption) Summary: these data are consistent demonstrating that skipping a meal does not result in accurate energy consumption as subsequent meals and suggests that skipping breakfast may be an effective means to reduce daily energy intake in some adults. Instructed to eat as much or as little as they want.
