[Back-to-school special] Breakfast is one of the most controversial meals, and its importance is often questioned. However, there are numerous studies that link the habit of eating breakfast with a better nutritional status and better health in general.
🔹 In children between 6 and 9 years of age skipping breakfast regularly was associated with a higher body mass index (BMI) and a higher percentage of school-age children with obesity (ALADINO study; AECOSAN, 2016).
🔹 Eating breakfast is also associated with better diet quality in school-age children and a higher intake of nutrients in general (Ramsay et al., 2018).
This highlights the important role of breakfast as a vehicle for foods that do not tend to be eaten at other times of the day or that are eaten in insufficient quantities.
Combining yogurt and fruit, in addition to being tasty, may confer combining health benefits through the potential interactions between fruit prebiotics and yogurt probiotics: fruits are rich in fiber which promotes the colonization of lactobacilli and bifidobacteria (the so-called “good bacteria”) in the colon.
