Men who skip breakfast are at higher risk of heart problems

摘要

Men who reported that they had skipped breakfast have a higher risk of heart attack or death from coronary heart disease. The timing of meals, whether it's missing a meal in the morning or eating very late at night, may cause adverse metabolic effects that lead to coronary heart disease, according to a 16-year study. Even after accounting for modest differences in diet, physical activity, smoking and other lifestyle factors, the link between skipping breakfast or eating very late at night and coronary heart disease persisted.
