WASHINGTON – A new study about breakfast supports the theory that it might be one of the most important meals of the day.
Researchers with the American College of Cardiology found skipping breakfast could be linked to higher risk for cardiovascular related-death.
After taking a person’s age, sex, race, diet, lifestyle, body mass index, and disease status into account, the study found those who never ate breakfast had an 87 percent higher risk of a cardiovascular death, specifically heart disease and stroke.
The survey looked at data from 1988 to 1994 on more than 6,500 adults aged 40 to 75.
