Skipping breakfast increases the risk of heart disease.

(TNO) A research team led by Dr. Kylie J. Smith of the University of Tasmania (Australia) reached this conclusion after surveying nearly 2,200 people over several years, according to Reuters.

Studies show that people who skip breakfast as children and into adulthood are more likely to develop heart disease than those who rarely skip breakfast.

In addition, people who skip breakfast tend to be less active and more prone to weight gain.

Specifically, those who skip breakfast have a waist circumference that is nearly 5cm larger than those who do eat breakfast.

People who skip breakfast also have higher levels of insulin, total cholesterol, and bad LDL cholesterol in their bodies, all of which contribute to cardiovascular disease.
