BACKGROUND
Breakfast is the most
important meal of the
day!
Current evidence
Cross-sectional associations
Prospective studies
Different breakfast types vs.
presence/absence of breakfast
OBJECTIVE
To compare the effects of daily breakfast
consumption relative to extended
morning fasting on energy balance and
human health.
DESIGN
Randomized Controlled Trial
Free-living conditions
6-week period: breakfast vs.
fasting
Assessed energy balance and
health
PARTICIPANTS
Obese cohort from Bath Breakfast Project
n=23
Inclusion criteria:
21-60,
Record of regular menstrual cycle/contraceptive use
No anticipated changes in diet and/or physical activity habits during the study
period
Weight stable (2% over 6 mos.)
Non-shift workers
Not pregnant or breastfeeding
Free from any other condition or behavior deemed to pose undue personal risk or
introduce bias into the experiment
INTERVENTION
6-week intervention
Assigned group
Breakfast Group: >700 kcals before 11:00 AM daily, w/ at least half consumed within 2
hours of waking
Fasting Group: Abstained from ingesting energy-providing nutrients until 12:00 PM
each day
INTERVENTION
Week 1: Baseline/Monitored
Intervention
Laboratory assessments, anthropometrics,
key metabolites/hormones
Monitored by Actiheart and Continuous
Glucose Monitor
Week 6: Follow-up/Monitored
Intervention
Laboratory assessments, anthropometrics,
key metabolites/hormones
Monitored by Actiheart and Continuous
STATISTICAL ANALYSES
SPSS version 22
Paired or independent ttests
Mixed-model ANOVA
P < 0.05
RESULTS
No significant
difference in Diet
Induced
Thermogenesis
(P=0.3)
No significant
difference in
RMR (P=0.8)
KEY FINDINGS
1. No difference in reported total energy intake,
indicating compensatory effect
2. Breakfast Group: Greater physical activity
thermogenesis before 12:00PM
3. Breakfast Group: Decreased insulinemic response
to OGTT
4. No evidence that omitting breakfast impacts body
weight
CONCLUSIONS
Compensation Effect of Obese
Individuals > Compensation Effect of
Lean Individuals
Morning fasting lower physical
activity expenditure
Breakfast Weight loss
Breakfast insulin sensitivity
glycemic control
