eating sweets for breakfast
Eating cake for breakfast: Generally, having cake for breakfast is not considered a healthy choice, but it is normal on birthdays or holidays. Recent research suggests we should reconsider eating sweets for breakfast, especially in the context of weight loss.
One study analyzed 200 participants for 32 weeks. The results showed that people who included sweets such as cookies, chocolate or cake with their breakfast lost an average of 40 pounds. In contrast, those who did not do so, their weight remained stable. The morning is the most active time for the body’s metabolism, causing us to consume excess calories throughout the day.
Therefore, it is important to keep in mind that sweets can be okay for breakfast, provided that it is accompanied by proteins and carbohydrates and its calories do not exceed 600. This can help control cravings throughout the day and help maintain weight.
However, there is often negative advice regarding the consumption of chocolate and other sweets, such as concerns about weight gain or damage to teeth. But taken in moderation, a small piece of chocolate can be a pleasurable experience.
Can chocolate really cause weight gain? The short answer is yes. Chocolate can also increase calories like other foods. Therefore, portion control and selecting the right chocolate is essential.
