The saying breakfast is the most important meal of the day is not just folk lore or a buzz phrase.

What if there was unhealthy kids all over the world? Some kids don’t eat a nutritional breakfast everyday. Breakfast is really the most important meal of the day because your body needs energy after you wake up and it can improve your overall health.

The importance of a healthy breakfast cannot be underestimated. A child who is undernourished in the morning will not be functional for her class until lunch. Also, schools can act as supporters of positive, healthy behaviors by offering nutritious breakfasts such as fruit and yogurt, versus the fast food breakfasts some adolescents might grab, if they get breakfast at all. Many school districts are beginning earlier and earlier in the day, and students are simply not hungry enough or do not get up early enough in the morning for breakfast, leaving them starving by 10am. Being able to grab breakfast in study hall can thus prevent many potential academic and nutritional problems.

I used to keep extra food on hand in my classroom for students who would inevitably complain about not having had breakfast. A study on the breakfast program found that “There is significant evidence of positive academic effects due to breakfast consumption” (Benefits, 2010). This program is one way that we can help our students to have the nourishment they need to be able to learn and

Another study done on fruit and vegetable consumption in the NSLP indicates similar results. About 5,414 students participated in the study, and food records were gathered. About 67% of these middle school students in Texas consumed a vegetable, while less than 4% chose a dark green or orange vegetable.5 About 40% of students chose and ate a fruit. Based on this study, students are not meeting the Institute of Medicine suggestions. With this in mind, fruits and vegetables are not in plain sight or there needs to be nutrition education in the classroom about how fruits and vegetables are good for

At school, students have a unqiue opportunity to make decisions about their nutrition, with the assistance of their parent in some cases.

When kids miss breakfast, they become more distracted during the day then kids who eat breakfast and as a result have better focus.
