The fact that breakfast is the most important meal of the day is old news. But according to a team of researchers,what is consumed is just as important. A new study suggests that consuming a high-protein breakfast reduces hunger throughout the day ^[1]. Is there anything that breakfast can’t do?

The study found that breakfast eaters in general (regardless of the protein level) displayed feelings of reduced hunger in addition to previous findings of improved cognitive function and academic performance ^[2]. But those who consumed a higher protein meal displayed even greater changes in appetite. The findings led researchers to believe that eating high-protein breakfast may be the key to appetite control.
