Speech On Breakfast

I can remember rare occasions as a child when I would wake up for school and there would be pancakes, eggs and bacon on the table and orange juice or Sunny Delight to drink. These exciting occasions, however, were just that: rare. Most days I would bound down the stairs to the toaster loaded with Pop-Tarts. I would usually be disappointed that I couldn't devour a wholesome breakfast, but I later came to understand the convenience of the Pop-Tart. My parents could put pastries in the toaster and continue to get ready for their day without having to worry about too much clean-up. It was during these early days of my education that I really found a love for the sugary, fruit-filled pastries.

“In most healthy people morning awakening is associated with a burst of cortisol secretion: the cortisol awakening response” (Clow). This increases the metabolic activity to normal levels to prepare the body for the new day.

The hunger experienced early in the morning is also a form of conditioning that we have learned through years of eating at an early hour. Now while breakfast food is delicious it can be a rather caloric meal early in the day that sets the average person back in their net caloric intake. With the addition of lunch, dinner and other meals it is largely possible that people that do not exercise will go over their daily caloric necessity.
