That's counter to the evidence.

I recommend that most people skip breakfast because it's the easiest way for most people to fit a fasting window in around their work schedule. However, if you have more flexibility, it looks like there's a marginal benefit for body composition and metabolic fitness to having your eating window in the morning.

- tdaltonc 5y agoThe "dawn phenomenon" (predictable early morning hormone and blood glucose changes) is definitely a thing. But the implication/interpretation that therefore morning/breakfast is the most dangerous time to eat, is wrong. Those papers directly test that hypothetical implication.
