That is what the term “breakfast” means. With 6-8 hours of sleep, this is a lot oftime without food. Start every morning with breakfast— period. As with any long period of not consuming any calories your body will be susceptible to the “starvation effect”, and will begin to store more fat and tap into lean muscle(protein) for energy.
The starvation effect is where body interprets you lake of calorie consumption as threat to survival. Given this condition your body will slow down the metabolic processes to conserve energy - i.e. keeping stored energy (fat). Breakfast is great for increasing your metabolism, fuels the brain, and provides more quality energy. Substituting caffeine for breakfast just gives an artificial energy and metabolic boost.
Start your morning off right with some fresh fruits, lean protein, and 100% whole grains.
Be Well
