Cereal companies have perpetuated a big myth about breakfast: that the first meal of the day is crucial to good health. And one of their most long-lasting claims is that breakfast is a good strategy for weight loss. Turns out, a closer look at the science suggests that may not be the case. We trace the origins of this myth, and the long history of breakfast companies making dubious health claims.

Even if breakfast was the most important meal of the day, cereal wouldn’t be a part of it.

Breakfast is great as long as you dont eat those cereals with 50% sugar in it.
Yes and 'fruit juice'
@@lennoxchen8646 "No added sugar"
It's not even that still- u have donuts, cinnamon rolls, huge amount of flour based items (breads, rolls, roasts, etc) & then bad meats such as bologna, bacon, etc
I’m reading this comment as I’m eating one of those cereals with 50% sugar in it...
not for breakfast though.
All cereals are "sugars". Bread and pasta are also a kind of sugar. All carbs are sugars, but a type that absorbs slower. Good cereals are also a good source of fibers.
Even when I was young, I always thought it was ridiculous that it was the "most important" meal of the day. It made me feel sick too early in the morning. Besides, the meal that gives you the most protein, vitamins, and nutrients is probably the most important. And that's almost never breakfast.
Maybe It's what your eating. If your eating very suger and greasy foods then I can see why you feel that way. Does the same thing happen with fruit?
@@ZaxorVonSkyler I was always the same. Breakfast too early makes me feel sick, no matter what the food is. Better to wait until you feel hungry and ready to eat later in the day
@@chlorhex6785 There's not really that much fructose in for example an apple. And you get a lot of fibres + vitamins.
chlorhex fruit has a lot of fructose yes but combined with the fibres and minerals makes them very beneficial. Also the sugars in fruit have a different process in our body’s than refined sugar(especially berries, which combined with antioxidantS make them the ultimate snack. - He definitely would be talking about refined sugars (which are in just about every prepackaged foods) and perhaps eating unhealthy fats, as well as healthy fats in excess could cause discomfort in the gut as well.
@@chlorhex6785 That would actually be healthy. Meat and other protein sources keeps you going longer than carbohydrates
I mean... technically everybody eats breakfast. Some just later than others
Yeah I eat my breakfast at 12 am everyday

Unless you drink for the taste instead of just getting wasted

I love the way this is the only post Vox has liked.
It's hilariously ironic because cereals are far from being a "healthy breakfast".
Some cereals are okay but it varies greatly by individual whether chasing it with dairy is a good idea.
well i think you need to differentiate between stuff like fruit loops and oats with yoghurt and an apple
Cereals should be a mix of carbs, fibers and mineral. Not a sweet snack mixed with milk.

Title should be renamed " is breakfast important for weight loss " ... They aren't covering anything else here apart from history and correlating breakfast only to weight loss and not it's other benefits
There are none. Eat when you're hungry. How do you think we did it before the concept of breakfast, lunch and dinner were thought up? How would animals regulate themselves?
@@XpanDong Hmm Yeah you're right ... But I always used to think there's always some benefits like perhaps having more energy throughout the day if you have breakfast . Kinda feel drained out skipping it till lunch , guess that's just me
Clickbait strategy
@@kartikkarajgikar2846 Indeed. I as Dutchman have learned that breakfast starts up the metabolic system. This because the metabolic system is having an active period and a hibernation period just before sleep and during sleep.
But you can't always eat when you want to. If you wake up and 6am and lunch hour at work is at noon, what do you do when your stomach starts revving up at 10? Eating breakfast can help prevent that. Then again, I suppose it all comes down to how flexible your lunch hour is.
I wish this video included more science than just explaining that cereal companies sometimes fund research :/ Also wish it had less focus on weight loss and more on actual health
Exactly what I was thinking. Just because cereal companies funded the research shouldn't be a reason to not believe it
Alright well take it from the meta-analysis of the randomized trials then. The best data we have says it's not effective at what it's promoted for.
As for "actual health", there's zero data either way showing an impact on life expectancy or anything this tangible. Unless you mean "actual health" in a much less tangible way.
Gabe Hernandez It’s very susceptible to bs, which is why they should’ve got more into depth.
@@GregTom2 I can see how skipping breakfast and then being hungry (and having less energy) could lead to many things that aren't healthy.
@@Dyge not really the case, when your stomach is fully empty and you need energy your body used stored fat etc, which happens to be better for your brain etc. Losing weight isnt the only reason people "fast" its beneficial for the mind.
“A study of studies” you mean a meta-analysis. 😶
Who studies the study of studies? Who? Whooo? Maybe a night owl? 😻
That was a review - the studies of studies
There is differences between "study of studies" and meta analysis. For example longitude analysis also study of studies but differ in how long the studies.
Thank you, smart person
Ok need nerd
"Should we eat breakfast?" Idk about you but im going to eat when i wake up cause I havent eaten anything for 8 hours or longer
TheElisabethMaria well.. your body didnt burned any calories burning but digested the food of the previous day.
@@RaulSanchez-nx1be well so is the case in the day of all I do all day is to watch videos on youtube.
@Raul Sanchez Your statement seems ridiculous and I disagree with it. However, if I am wronged about this, I'd be glad if you provide me with research links supporting your opinion.
There's a reason why it's called 'breakfast' (i.e. a break from fasting)
@@grecomic Yeah that makes sense
Didn't really answer the question completely. All you talked about was whether breakfast affected weight loss.
What other statements about breakfast would you like to see being investigated?
How about, “what effects does eating breakfast have on cognitive function?” That would be a good place to start.
Grant Herbers Yeah I was thinking the same thing, good video but disappointed because before taking the SAT, eating breakfast is ALWAYS recommended
GregTom2 how about the whole ‘breakfast is the most important meal of the day’ shebang
You are missing the point. There is no answer to the question completely. Stop looking for a be all end all answer. It doesn't exist. There are too many confounding factors to be able to deduce one thing over another using these types of studies. If you want answers you need to be asking a more specific question.

D' Ziem you must have eaten a lot of carbs before going to bed. Try eating mostly proteins and green veggies for supper, see how you feel in the morning.
@@DoMN15 I do eat a lot of carbs before going to bed because carbs is like the culture and the only available choice in my place
But thanks for the tips, I'll try that if possible
I’m the opposite. I can’t stomach any food until 11 or 12.
@@DoMN15 i eat a huge steak right before bed and still feel hungry in the morning, it's called having a healthy appetite and a working metabolism
@@JimmyKillem69 No. It's called "lack of fibre". A steak has no long-term digestive value.
Breakfast is good for you but not cereals (which is like eating air with sugar) but balanced ones like Turkish breakfast.
googled Turkish breakfast, not disappointed, I'd eat that every day
yeah I don't get how people skip breakfast, they're probably moody for the rest of the day
Or japanese breakfast
Well, it depends on what you consider to be cereals.
In the US it maybe means air with sugar.
Somewhere else it is healthy food.
VEGA fr. I always need breakfast especially since I have school. I wake up at 5am and I’m at school by 6:30. I have 15 minutes before class starts so I’ll eat my overnight oats at 6:30 because I don’t have lunch until 12. I would be so hungry and wouldn’t be able to concentrate if I waited until 12 to eat when I wake up at 5.
If I skip breakfast my sugar drops and I pass out before lunch 🤣
You have a fast metabolism. Other people don't. Like by all means do what you need to do to not pass out but if you were someone who's predisposed to be a night owl getting up an hour earlier for ANY reason (including breakfast) might make you sleepy all day.
... and i guess pity the people who are both night owls AND have fast metabolisms. XD
same here, i can't imagine not eating breakfast. i will get lightheaded and i can't concentrate
same here my dude, actually happened to me in school. it was hella embarrassing. then I started basically skipping school in the morning just to eat breakfast 😄
haha i can't eat food in the morning (by food i mean like bread,egg,rice etc) because i will throw up so i only drink some milk,tea or just water lol

Important side note: studies show that weight is NOT an accurate indicator of health. Physical activity level is a much better indicator. Weight loss does not automatically equal healthiness.
Definitely agree. What you do every day as physical activity or brain activity should come into account. Have a great week! 🙋♀️

Oh boy. Just eat and drink and stay alive.
Follow a healthy and diversified diet most of the time, break the rules sometimes, without much issues: boom, you're set. You won't be obese, you will be happy and enjoy food.

What is a corn flake? How is it made?
First, the kernels of corn are soaked in lye. Lye is a caustic, corrosive substance that will burn skin off your body. It's used in making rayon, soaps, and-breakfast cereals.
After the soaking, the kernels are blasted by live steam. Then a flavoring syrup full of mostly white sugar is poured over the soaked and steamed corn.
Next, the kernels are dried until they're hard. Then they're run through huge rollers that press down with 75 tons of pressure to flatten them out. Now they're ready to be toasted, heated and flaked one more time. Then they get their last dosing of preservatives, additives and chemicals and are packaged up in a brightly colored box with a picture of an athlete, animal, or cartoon character on the front.
Originally you had a grain of corn, fairly rich in protein, phosphorus, Vitamin A, and the three major B vitamins. Now you've got a sugar-frosted flake that has no original vitamins, few minerals, and an altered protein that is harmful to the body. What's more, you're probably paying five to ten times as much for this processed, denatured food than you would if you had just bought the original whole grain
Wish they taught us that in school.
That's frosties, not cornflakes.
@@northpointcity- for cornflakes the only bit you skip is adding sugar it's still awful and American cornflakes still have a little added sugar!
I'm never hungry for breakfast and that's perfectly fine.

Yeah, I'll straight up puke if i eat too early, though i can't even get the food down in the first place - i just stare at it, and if i take a bite it feels so dry in my mouth and i just chew and chew and chew but never wanna swallow it. I hate breakfast.
I eat like a pig between 2pm and 11pm, and then it's 15 hours or so where I'm just not hungry. I'm very thin, so probably doing it right :P

I usually don’t even eat until after 11

I thought the video was about breakfast as a whole, not just cereal, this was informative but Ive heard this so many times before.
Could have been better if it didnt focus so much on cereal, which not everyone around the world eats.
Happy No Collusion 🎉🎉🎉🎊🎊🎊
I always apreciate the effort to communicate scientific findings to a wider audience.
Sadly the conclusions made in this video are definetly not based on actual scientific findings.
I undestand that necessary simplifications have to be made, but here I am confident that these studies were intentionally selectively quoted and their meaning purposefully altered to fit the narrative that is to be told here.
From "Breakfast does not help you to loose weight" you jump to: "Breakfast has no benefits" (compare 2:42)
Your first source specifically states that weight loss might not occur because of breakfast consumption.
"This review questions the
recommendation for breakfast consumption in guidelines aimed at weight loss in adults" (Quote from Study)
The same study states:
"Although eating breakfast
regularly could have other important effects, such as improved concentration and attentiveness levels in childhood"
At 2:33 this quote is briefly visible in the video. From that i have to conclude that you know exactly that you are misrepresenting the findings.
Since there is a wide range of circumstantial effects and correlation at play studies considering our eating habits are especially tricky. That is a fact well known by people working in the field (researchers too!).
Here you are maliciously misrepresenting these studies.
There is a difference in telling an opinion and acting like your message is grounded in science.
After beeing a long-time viewer of your content i stopped following you quite a while ago because of similar reasons. It is saddening to come back after a long timeseeing this.
All studies are linked below their video.
btw: I am not saying: "without breakfast you are going to die", I am saying: "There probably are some benefits to eating a healthy breakfast."
You still have to acknowledge that these studies have had something to do with selling these product, it wouldn't be the only ti me that it's happened.
Sorry, typos that for some reason I couldn't edit
Good comment, it saddens me that some people think discussions on what's good for you, has to be about weight loss.
Yeah I was like, what exactly is the point they're trying to debunk. Wasn't sure if it had to do with breakfast altogether or just one piece of marketing: that breakfast helps with weight loss.
@@windskm yeah, this video was very confusing. Slippery narrative.
Something they don't know: I pass out the next day if I don't eat my breakfast. I usually have to eat a lot in order to be healthy. So for me, breakfast is very important.

Growing up on a farm I was the same way because we worked till dusk & we had a big Dinner around 1 & then ate something light for supper & it made you sleep like a baby & you were hungry in the morning!

I lost 300 pounds in the course of 9 years.
Incredibly sad how due to the levels of obesity in America, this video doesn't talk about health in general as I thought it would, but equates health with weight loss. Instead of the answer to whether "breakfast is the most important meal of the day", we got "is skipping breakfast good for your weight" lol...
that's what I was thinking! I wanted them to go into efficient brain power and energy with the right foods, or if it was a myth as well.
Good point.
If you choose a breakfast with healthy foods, you can add nutrients to your diet. Nutrients =/= just your weight.
(Of course you can get nutrients later in the day too. Without research on when is the most beneficial _besides weight loss_, we may never know.)
Yeah, this fetish people have with "Body Mass Index" and numbers on a scale is really bone-headed. I'm sure if I chopped both my arms off, I'd "weigh less", right? People should be more concerned about body-FAT not body-WEIGHT
Eat when youre hungry, and dont stuff your face if youre not. doenst account for everything but its a pretty good general rule to go by.
I've actually never heard of breakfast being used to weightloss. That was interesting.
Cereal makers said "Stop nutting"
And we said "Yum tasty"
To all the breakfast skippers-
*Don't you feel hungry?* (Between waking up and lunch)
No
Honestly, not really. I tend to feel nauseous in the morning, so I don't like eating until later in the day
Nope. Once I stopped listening to all the "experts" about how to eat, I started losing weight. The first thing I did was stop eating breakfast - because I just wasn't hungry in the morning. I haven't eaten breakfast in several years. Lot of days I skip lunch too. Went from 400 lbs to 160, and haven't been hungry.
Maggie Flynn-Fleet congratulations on the weight loss!
If i eat in the morning i feel like throwing up
Whatever, I am having 'brunchinner' every single day
In the 1993 movie Kalifornia, Brad Pitt's character talks about this topic. Also there is a Drunk History episode talking about the Kellogg brothers. Very interesting.
Breakfast is Breaking FAST over your 6-8 hours of sleep... so idk what the hype is about....
Your body's insulin resistance is actually the highest in the morning. So, few or no calories in the morning is probably the best for weight loss.But, for people who have physically or mentally draining work schedules in the morning, a morning boost of energy is a great idea !
Most of these nutritional studies are sponsored by those who have vested interests in the conclusion. So, take these studies with a pinch of salt and follow a diet that suits you !
Well, I would have thought that it depends on the fibre content in the morning. Whole oats with plant milk will probably not spike blood sugar levels.
Just like lunch and dinner are totally optional. Food is so overrated.
The way i see it is, eat when you're truly hungry and dont let a clock tell you when you're hungry.
@@marioalvirde same lol
There are actually people that think eating breakfast will make you loose weight? That is another level of stupid
Anyone else doesn't eat breakfast at all .Like you wake up for work/school and don't eat breakfast?Like you eat lunch,Then another mid day lunch,then dinner,then a late night dinner?
If you didn't eat dinner or late dinner, you wouldn't need breakfast, since you're full from the night before. I only eat breakfast and lunch, so I feel hungry every morning.

Answer: NO.

No, you didn't because the answer you gave doesn't provide any context for itself. Therefore it's worthless.
@@shadowmaydawn I mean the video can be boiled down to "Cereal makers fund studies that say breakfast is good.". It doesn't really answer it's own question.
I'm curious if any of the studies looked at whether students in school did better on assessments with or without breakfast. My experience has been that hungry students are distracted. Would the research for this video point away from schools providing breakfasts for lower socio-economic students?
Hungry is not good, but not eating breakfast isn't the same as being hungry
There has been some studies of school breakfast programs which have shown some effectiveness. These studies are still being funded by breakfast brands and biased, though. You could probably reliably improve the failing student's commitment to studies by enrolling them in any sort of para scholar activity or club, a breakfast club being just one example.
I found that a lot of study on whether breakfast affects concentration usually don't take into account whether they regularly eat breakfast or not, and make breakfast eaters skip it, or vice versa. I'm a breakfast skipper, if I eat breakfast it makes me feel uncomfortable and bloated - I don't feel hungry until nearer to lunch time. If I was a breakfast eater, of course skipping it would make me hungry and have poorer concentration. The main point in this video seems to be just carry on what you feel best suited for you. If a student doesn't want breakfast they can choose not to, but schools should really still accommodate for the students who do.
Schools shouldn't provide breakfast - parents should. Its not the governments job to feed you
hey, see at "01:44"
I am impressed of how easily some people lie. I guess money is worth not having any integrity at all.
I am a teen, and I eat breakfast, but I'd say that the majority of students at my school do not eat breakfast. Many of them are lacking in their grades and performance, and often rely on energy drinks to get them through the day. Yes, breakfast can seem pointless and not taste good, but if you're a kid or teen, it might be a good idea to eat breakfast.
How did I know the person who made this video skips breakfast 🤣
They do but at least one other video came out a few days earlier than this one where John Stossel says the same things. I know you're just having fun. Just saying.
Soooooo are we all gonna pretend that metabolism and blood sugar don't factor into this?
I was thinking exactly the same thing, after a long sleep the body needs fuel, skipping meals isn't good for blood sugars or metabolism, try running a car on empty for too long, exactly the same outcome.
Also completely overlooked is the adage "breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper.... "
But why would people think eating breakfast helps you loose weight?
A common rationale is that eating breakfast curbs your appetite so you don't overeat later in the day due to being exceptionally hungry from skipping breakfast
Ok I see
Solution: Never eat breakfast.
because they are stupid
Thank you. My mom always tell me to eat breakfast eventhough I'm not hungry at all. It makes me feel guity all of this year that I'm skipping breakfast to many time
fun fact: the kellogg brothers accidentally invented cornflakes. they were trying to make up a new type of bread so they did some stuff to bread, toasted it, and watched it dry into flakes. (i got this from an old science book)
Bread isn't usually made from corn

I moved to the South years ago. Everyone I met had grown up on a farm, having to hit the fields at sun-up. Every one of them had a monstrous breakfast, and they needed it to get through the day. Personally, I haven't eaten breakfast in 40 years.
How many meals do you eat in a day on average?
If breakfast was so important why didn't someone just ask why don't we eat it all day.

As long as one exercises regularly and sticks to whole grains, healthy fats, lean protein and fruits/vegetables, they should be hunky dory.
I thought this video should be about the importance of breakfast? I feel like it's just more to breakfast in-relation to weight management...
hey vox can you tell me what music was used in this Video? I've heard it on other Videos of vox and I love it! I would like to find out more about the composer and their music:) ! Thanks and greetings, as always a great and informative video
I started that intermittent fasting.. and I went from 280 to 246. So yeah... skipping breakfast and having a (one) meal does work. I also cut out all sodas even diet. I drink water and unsweet tea. I started this in nov, now its towards the end of Feb 2020. So you can do it too if you want to loose weight. Dont listen to those who say its dangerous, especially if they are bigger than you.
I got a Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut ad before this!
Yeah, but this was put out by an admitted breakfast-skipper, so how can I trust THESE results any more than the studies paid for by Kellogg?!?
And she even got paid for making this video, what's the difference?
The scientific consensus of a good health these days are quite simple: skip processed and ultraprocessed food (like cereal), eat more naturally with variety, practice some daily or weekly exercises, sleep well, and break bad habits, as smoking and drinking. That's it
This video could more complete tho
It actually wasn't kellog himself who made the cornflakes. They were only named after his adopted son to get popularity. Also, they gave people tons of enemas and made you chew 20 times in there. There's a whole movie about it. There was also some rumors about the adopted son being autistic in later years. Mainly because of the way he behaved.
Your video and the research mentioned are tackling weight loss, not importantness or healthiness. Also, cereals is not the only possible breakfast.
A ton of people are saying that.
What kind of study would you design that measures "importantness" or "healthiness". Life expectancy? Good luck funding that 40 year of follow up study.
If you make the claim that it's the most important meal out of thin air, then the burden of demonstrating that it is rests on you. If you can't design an experiment to tests "importantness" then your claim is pseudoscience.
Never had a breakfast in the last six years. Healthy AF.
Haven't skipped breakfast in six years. Healthy AF.
I have an inkling that eating regularly in appropriate portions may contribute to a stable blood glucose level throughout the day, which helps you deal with stressful situations or sudden incidents better.
1) Most people would be better off if they did not eat first thing in the morning; this is the body's time to clean house and it is not ready to digest food. Greater health could result if people would adopt a sensible "No-Breakfast" plan, and ate more nutritious foods later in the day.
2) Fruits are far superior to cereals as a nutritious breakfast food, and they are the ultimate convenience food-no milk, no bowls, no preparation or clean-up whatsoever.
3) Added nutrients to food ("fortified" foods) are riot utilized by the body like the naturally occurring organic elements. They in no way replace or serve the same functions as do vitamins, minerals, and co-existing nutrients in natural foods.

To sleep another 30 minutes or to have a meal? Screw breakfast.
Just an FYI...the word "breakfast" means to BREAK your fast. You've most likely not eaten anything since last night's meal. So, by having breakfast you are breaking your fast.
I just read a similar article on Quora, then came on here and saw this. Am I bugged or summat?
I eat breakfast in 12:00 PM.
I eat Lunch in 6:00 PM.
I eat Dinner in 4:00 AM.
Greetings my fellow unemployed brethren.
@James Currie I am unemployed.
@James Currie and i have to eat dinner and watch stranger things while i cry being single.

I've read a lot on bodybuilding forums that consuming a larger breakfast reduces your appetite later in the day, resulting in weight loss.
Funny how in my home country (Germany) people who don't eat Breakfast are expected to be slimmer..
