The mechanism is true, but from what I’ve researched it doesn’t really have any major benefit. The best benefit (to a healthy person) is it might prevent energy crashes later on in the day. But generally as an adult you can eat whenever you feel like it anyway 😁

I want to say that this might help with pre-diabetes, but I also don’t want to give this as medical advice. If you have pre-diabetes definitely get a second opinion.

I wage a protracted people’s war against breakfast because it’s been hyped up as the “most important meal of the day” only because of a Kellogg’s ad campaign and I feel like there’s been post-hoc justifications to try and twist the saying to be true. Like all the benefits (supposed or otherwise) of breakfast people give me I usually find they’re not that great or were misinterpreted… but of course I try to keep an open mind.
