People who skip breakfast in hope to loose weight are more likely to eat more at lunch and will crave fatty and sugary foods says a research carried out by doctors and scientists at Imperial College London.
Brains of 21 healthy young men and women were scanned during the research.
When people skip first meal of the day, their brain seek out unhealthier, higher-calorie foods to fulfill the loss. So it is important that people maintain a normal diet throughout the day along with routine exercise.
Volunteers in a research - once after the men and women had eaten breakfast and again on a morning when they hadn't eaten since the night before.
After both the times they were a pasta lunch and told they could eat as much as they liked. Those who had missed breakfast ate about 250 calories more then the people who didn't.
They also rated how appealing they found the foods, which ranged from salads and vegetables to calorie-laden chocolates, desserts, cakes, pizzas and burgers.
