Nearly half of Britons give their children junk food for breakfast, according to a new study. It turns out that in 43 percent of children, the first meal of the day includes cereals, which have too much sugar.
It seems that British parents are not particularly concerned about the health of their children - according to the study, 20 percent of 2,000 parents very often allow their children to eat sweets for breakfast, including chocolate.
They also say that sometimes they even give them chips. The British Foundation's explanations for promoting the benefits of healthy eating are that parents were confused and simply did not know exactly what to choose for their children's breakfast.
Elderly people are also included in the study and according to the results almost 25% of them do not know how to eat healthily. A quarter of Britons are actually unaware of how much protein or carbohydrate they should eat each day, experts explain. In addition, they do not know what are the pros and cons of different food groups.
Nutritionists believe that these results are extremely alarming. After all, as adults, parents can eat as they see fit, but their children cannot eat sweet or fatty foods for breakfast.
It is not useful to skip breakfast, but one in ten people do not eat breakfast during the week, the Daily Mail writes on its pages. If we miss breakfast three times a week, we can consume more than 250 calories more, the publication informs us.
It is also well known that skipping the first meal of the day increases the desire to consume unhealthy foods throughout the day. Scientists claim that because of the habit of not eating breakfast we can gain up to 12 pounds a year.
The study involved 2,000 people, 37 percent of whom admitted to skipping breakfast on some days of the week, and nearly half said they were hungry long before lunch time.
