Big breakfasts can help you stay slim

EATING a high protein breakfast could help you stay slim.

Experts at the University of Missouri (USA) carried out a study which found that a breakfast of steak and eggs, rich in protein, increased a feeling of fullness and reduced brain activity that is responsible for food craving.

This led to a reduction in evening snacking on high-fat and high-sugar foods compared to when breakfast was skipped or when a normal breakfast cereal was consumed.
