If you do not have breakfast, you should immediately stop taking this bad habit as it increases the risk of serious health problems.

According to a medical report by German researchers, not having breakfast even a day a week increases the risk of type 2 diabetes.

The study was based on six studies involving samples exceeding 96,000 people, including 5,000 with type 2 diabetes.

The absence of a morning meal for just one day a week increases the risk of diabetes by 6%, according to the ABC News website.

Those who did not eat breakfast four or five days a week were 55% more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.

According to nutrition expert Dalina Soto, breakfast is very important because it starts a physical activity and changes the way sugar is used.

Breakfast helps to use sugar in the body to get energy instead of storing it in fat cells. This meal is therefore very important for those looking to lose excess weight.

In the second type of diabetes, the most common, the body becomes resistant to insulin, a hormone that adjusts the sugar level.

When insulin does not work, blood sugar levels rise to high levels, causing serious complications to the heart, nerves, kidneys and eyes.

The nutritionist advises eating a balanced fiber breakfast and minimizing added sugar and processed meat as much as possible.

The specialist suggests having a breakfast consisting of oats, milk and fruit or preparing eggs and vegetables, explaining that these foods help to feel full for a long time of the day.
