What happens to the body when you skip Breakfast ?

Your stress hormones skyrocket

Breakfast has a positive effect on cortisol, one of the primary “stress hormones” produced by the adrenal glands, according to research from the University of Texas at Austin. Cortisol has many functions including helping the body use sugar (glucose) and fat for energy and managing stress. “Normally, cortisol levels are highest about 7 a.m., so this is when it’s important to eat something to bring them back down,” Axe says. “If cortisol levels remain elevated, you’re likely to feel anxious or jittery.”
