Lunch in 5 minutes

What is the most important meal when you want to lose weight? The supper, do you believe?

Well, no! It's lunch. By eating a healthy and balanced meal in the morning, you help stabilize your blood sugar, which is necessary after a 10-hour fast. In this way, you will avoid the hunger cycle that will not fail to occur if you wait for lunch to have your first real meal.

Do you want evidence? Researchers at Vanderbilt University recruited overweight women who regularly jumped lunch, and made them follow a 1,200 calories per day diet. The first group only took two meals a day, dinner and supper. The second group took three. Twelve weeks later, those who took a lunch had lost a little more than 7.5 kilos, the others, just under 6 kilos.

They ingest the same amount of calories well, right? Well no, concluded the researchers. Those who had lunch managed to stick to their regime of 1,200 calories while those who jumped the morning meal tricked regularly.
