Overview

A recent study in the journal Obesity has revealed that eating breakfast is tied to a greater weight loss during an intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) for obese/overweight people. This was mediated by increased physical activity. Studies have shown breakfast skipping to be associated with obesity and related cardiometabolic outcomes, however, the association between breakfast eating and weight loss is not well-established.

Study in Diabetes and Metabolism journal, aimed to determine breakfast consumption frequency (BCF) is associated with weight-loss outcomes in the Look AHEAD (Action for Health in Diabetes), a randomized trial comparing intensive lifestyle intervention (ILI) to diabetes support and education (DSE) in adults with overweight/obesity and type 2 diabetes.
