You’re Less Likely to Be Obese if You Eat Breakfast

Eating patterns, such as eating out, frequency of meals, and skipping breakfast, have a large influence on whether or not a person is obese, even when other factors such as total calorie intake and exercise are taken out of the equation.

People who skip breakfast are over four times as likely to be obese than people who eat something in the morning. However, people who eat breakfast, or dinner, away from home frequently were more likely to be obese.

On the other hand, eating more often throughout the day was associated with a lower obesity risk.
