Yeah working from home has nothing to do with anything in my case. I have a lifetime of experience in all situations.
like many other health-related tips, it's probably not something that applies to everyone, just a good rule of thumb for most. what sort of "proof" are you looking for exactly?
A casual rule of thumb is not what I have been talking about. I'm talking about blanket statements that get made in a certain way.
To support those, I would need scientific data outlining the medical/physiological/psychological consequences of not eating breakfast. Does it lead to cancer or heart disease or Alzheimer's or freaking tennis elbow - anything? Are there any consequence at all?
And I would need some differentiation between the consequences of missing breakfast and the other meals. Does missing breakfast cost you vitamins while missing dinner does not? Does missing breakfast give you polio while missing lunch does not? Why is breakfast the most important?
Yes, I understand that people who are hungry in the morning will be less hungry if they eat. People who have mid-morning slumps and trouble concentrating when they don't eat will find those problems lessened if they eat. And by god, good food is better than bad food.
I concede that breakfast is important for people that it's important for.
Which, in the world of proven points, is pretty low on the totem pole to my way of thinking.
But to accept the blanket statement in the way that it so often made, I need something more universal.
